Add <code><nowiki><noinclude></nowiki>{{t|Documentation|documentation page}}<nowiki></noinclude></nowiki></code> to transclude an alternative page from the /doc subpage. ==Usage== ===On the Template page=== This is the normal format when used: <pre> TEMPLATE CODE <includeonly>Any categories to be inserted into articles by the template</includeonly> <noinclude>{{Documentation}}</noinclude> </pre> ''If your template is not a completed div or table, you may need to close the tags just before <code><nowiki>{{Documentation}}</nowiki></code> is inserted (within the noinclude tags).'' ''A line break right before <code><nowiki>{{Documentation}}</nowiki></code> can also be useful as it helps prevent the documentation template "running into" previous code.'' ===On the documentation page=== The documentation page is usually located on the /doc subpage for a template, but a different page can be specified with the first parameter of the template (see [[#Syntax|Syntax]]). Normally, you will want to write something like the following on the documentation page: <pre> ==Description== This template is used to do something. ==Syntax== Type <code>{{t|templatename}}</code> somewhere. ==Samples== <code>&lt;nowiki>{{templatename|input}}&lt;/nowiki></code> results in... {{templatename|input}} <includeonly>Any categories for the template itself</includeonly> <noinclude>[[Category:Template documentation]]</noinclude> </pre> Use any or all of the above description/syntax/sample output sections.

Broadly speaking, a hatnote should answer a readers' question: Am I on the right page? == Usage == ; Basic usage: &#123;{hatnote|''text''}} ; All parameters: &#123;{hatnote|''text''|extraclasses=''extra classes''|selfref=''yes''|category=''no''}} == Parameters == This template accepts the following parameters: * <code>1</code> - the hatnote text (required) * <code>extraclasses</code> - any extra CSS classes to be added. * <code>selfref</code> - If set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", adds the CSS class "selfref". This is used to denote self-references. * <code>category</code> - If set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", suppresses the error tracking category ([[:Category:Hatnote templates with errors]]). This has an effect only if the leftmost parameter (the hatnote text) is omitted. == Example == * <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|Example hatnote text}}</nowiki></code> → {{hatnote|Example hatnote text}} == Typical types == {{T|Main}}, {{T|Further}} are very similar, but indicate either the primary page for a topic or more detailed related topic. They have a nearly identical set of parameters. ;{{T|Main}}: When an article is large, it often has a summary and a link to a main article. This template is used after the heading of the summary, to indicate a link to the subtopic article that has been summarized. ;{{T|Further}}: Used to link to articles containing further information on this topic. ;{{T|See also}}: Used to link to additional articles on related topics. :;{{T|Main|Main Page}} →:{{Main|Main Page}} :;{{T|Main|Main Page|Main Page}} →:{{Main|Main Page|Main Page}} :*<code>1</code>, <code>2</code>, <code>3</code>, ... – the pages to link to. If no page names are specified, the current page name is used instead (without the namespace prefix). Categories and files are automatically escaped with the [[w:Help:Colon trick|colon trick]], and links to sections are automatically formatted as ''page § section'', rather than the MediaWiki default of ''page#section''. :*<code>l1</code>, <code>l2</code>, <code>l3</code>, ... ''or''<code>label 1</code>, <code>label 2</code>, <code>label 3</code>, ... – optional labels for each of the pages to link to (this is for articles where a piped link would be used). Note that the extra parameters use a lower case 'L', for example, <code>l1</code>, <u>not</u> <code>L1</code>. :*<code>selfref</code> – if set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", adds the CSS class "selfref". This is used to denote self-references. == Disambiguation == Templates such as {{T|About}} and {{T|For}} are to be used in cases where a disambiguation is not needed. In general, disambiguation pages should only be used for 4 or more titles that are mostly or entirely identical, except for a qualifier. ;{{T|About}}: Links the reader to other articles with similar titles or concepts that they may have been seeking instead. The template has several formats, including: :;{{T|About|Use1}} →:{{About|}} :;{{T|About|Use1|<nowiki/>|Main Page}} →:{{About|Use1||Main Page}} :;{{T|About|Use1|<nowiki/>|Main Page|and|Main Page}} →:{{About|Use1||Main Page|and|Main Page}} :;{{T|About|Use1|Use2|Main Page}} →:{{About|Use1|Use2|Main Page}} :;{{T|About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|and|Main Page}} →:{{About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|and|Main Page}} :;{{T|About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|other uses}} →:{{About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|other uses}} Alternately, a <code>section=yes</code> parameter can be added to the {{T|About}} template for use at the top of a section.

Please use <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> instead. # Some parameters were specified, but the hatnote text wasn't included. For example, the template text <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|extraclasses=seealso}}</nowiki></code> will produce this error. Please use (for example) <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>|extraclasses=seealso}}</nowiki></code> instead. # The hatnote text was specified, but that text contains an equals sign ("="). The equals sign has a special meaning in template code, and because of this it cannot be used in template parameters that do not specify a parameter name. For example, the template code <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|2+2=4}}</nowiki></code> will produce this error. To work around this, you can specify the parameter name explicitly by using <code>1=</code> before the hatnote text, like this: <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|1=2+2=4}}</nowiki></code>. # You tried to access [[Module:Hatnote]] directly by using <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:hatnote|hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. Use of #invoke in this way has been disabled for performance reasons. Please use <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> instead.

Named parameters of the form "<code>mood1</code>", "<code>mood2</code>", "<code>mood3</code>", etc., up to "<code>mood10</code>", specify moods for the corresponding line number (e.g. "<code>mood1</code>" specifies line 1).

It helps other templates detect what type of page they are on. It detects and groups all the different [[Wikipedia:Namespace#Enumeration|namespaces]] used on Fandom into several types: ; main : Main (i.e. article) space, where normal articles are kept. ; talk : Any talk space, including page names that start with "Talk:", "User talk:", "File talk:", etc. ;user ;file ;mediawiki ;template ;help ;category : The remaining namespaces. ; other : Any namespaces that were not specified as a parameter to the template (see explanation below). For backwards compatibility, this template handles '''image''' as if '''file'''. '''image''' (<nowiki>[[Image:...]]</nowiki>) is now deprecated. '''Note:''' For most cases it may be better to use the simpler namespace detection templates (see the [[#See also|see also]] section below). This template is more prone to human errors such as misspelling parameter names. This template uses the [[w:Help:Lua|Lua templating language]], and more information can be found [[w:c:dev:Global_Lua_Modules/Namespace_detect|on the Global Lua Module page]]. '''For a traditional wikitext version of this template, see [[w:c:templates:Template:Namespace_detect|Namespace_detect on Templates Wiki]]'''. == Usage == This template takes one or more parameters named after the different page types as listed above. Like this: <pre> {{Namespace | main = Article text | talk = Talk page text | other = Other pages text }} </pre> If the template is on a main (article) page, it will return this: : {{Namespace |demospace=main | main = Article text | talk = Talk page text | other = Other pages text }} If the template is on any other page than an article or a talk page, it will return this: : {{Namespace | main = Article text | talk = Talk page text | other = Other pages text }} The example above made the template return something for all page types. But if we don't use the '''other''' parameter or leave it empty, it will not return anything for the other page types. Like this: <pre> {{Namespace | file = File page text | category = Category page text | other = }} </pre> On any pages other than file and category pages the code above will render nothing. <!-- Do not remove this one. It is supposed to render nothing, but we have it here for testing purposes. --> : {{Namespace | file = File page text | category = Category page text | other = }} By using an empty parameter, you can make it so the template doesn't render anything for some specific page type. Like this: <pre> {{Namespace | main = | other = Other pages text }} </pre> The code above will render nothing when on mainspace (article) pages, but will return this when on other pages: : {{Namespace | main = | other = Other pages text }} == Demospace and page == For testing and demonstration purposes, this template can take two parameters named '''demospace''' and '''page'''. '''demospace''' understands any of the page type names used by this template, including the '''other''' type. It tells the template to behave like it is on some specific type of page. Like this: <pre> {{Namespace | main = Article text | other = Other pages text | demospace = main }} </pre> No matter on what kind of page the code above is used, it will return this: : {{Namespace | main = Article text | other = Other pages text | demospace = main }} The '''page''' parameter instead takes a normal pagename, making this template behave exactly as if on that page. The pagename doesn't have to be an existing page. Like this: <pre> {{Namespace | user = User page text | other = Other pages text | page = User:Example }} </pre> No matter on what kind of page the code above is used, it will return this: : {{Namespace | user = User page text | other = Other pages text | page = User:Example }} It can be convenient to let your template understand the '''demospace''' and/or '''page''' parameter and send it on to the {{T|Namespace}} template. Like this: <pre> {{Namespace | main = Article text | other = Other pages text | demospace = {{{demospace|}}} | page = {{{page|}}} }} </pre> If both the '''demospace''' and '''page''' parameters are empty or undefined, the template will detect page types as usual. == Parameters == List of all parameters: <pre> {{Namespace | main = ... | other = | demospace = {{{demospace|}}} / main / talk / user / file / mediawiki / template / help / category / other | page = {{{page|}}} / User:Example }} </pre> == Technical details == If you intend to feed tables as content to the numbered parameters of this template, you need to know this: [[w:Help:Template|Templates]] have a problem handling parameter data that contains pipes "<code>|</code>" unless the pipe is inside another template <code><nowiki>{{name|param1}}</nowiki></code> or inside a piped link <code><nowiki>[[w:Help:Template|help]]</nowiki></code>. Thus templates can not handle [[w:Help:Table|wikitables]] as input unless you escape them by using the <code><nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki></code> [[w:Help:Magic words|magic word]]. This makes it hard to use wikitables as parameters to templates. Instead, the usual solution is to use HTML wikimarkup for the table code, which is more robust. <includeonly>[[Category:General wiki templates]]{{#ifeq:{{SUBPAGENAME}}|sandbox|[[Category:Namespace manipulation templates]]}}</includeonly><noinclude>[[Category:Template documentation]]</noinclude> abd1a20286343a0c76ff9c575682bd5d011f5a6d 828 70 70 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 fixing broken help link Scribunto text/plain -- This Module is used for making templates based in the Lua language. -- See more details about Lua in [[w:Help:Lua]]. -- The Fandom Developer's Wiki hosts Global Lua Modules that can be imported and locally overridden. -- The next line imports the Dialogue module from the [[w:c:dev:Global Lua Modules]]. local Dialogue = require('Dev:Dialogue') -- See more details about this module at [[w:c:dev:Global_Lua_Modules/Dialogue]] -- The last line produces the output for the template return Dialogue a147d7d4d5837eeb0910d21be2904bbae6658ad2 828 71 71 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 Scribunto text/plain -- This Module is used for making templates based in the Lua language. -- See more details about Lua in [[w:Help:Lua]]. -- The Fandom Developer's Wiki hosts Global Lua Modules that can be imported and locally overridden. -- The next line imports the Hatnote module from the [[w:c:dev:Global Lua Modules]]. local H = require('Dev:Hatnote') -- See more details about this module at [[w:c:dev:Global_Lua_Modules/Hatnote]] -- The last line produces the output for the template return H d52966e186d4771ee7844be7f402467c51644349 828 72 72 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 Scribunto text/plain -- This Module is used for making templates based in the Lua language. -- See more details about Lua in [[w:Help:Lua]]. -- The Fandom Developer's Wiki hosts Global Lua Modules that can be imported and locally overridden. -- The next line imports the Mbox module from the [[w:c:dev:Global Lua Modules]]. local Mbox = require('Dev:Mbox') -- See more details about this module at [[w:c:dev:Global_Lua_Modules/Mbox]] -- The imported Module is overwritten locally to include default styling. -- For a more flexible Mbox experience, delete the function below and import -- https://dev.fandom.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Global_Lua_Modules/Mbox.css -- or paste (and modify as you like) its contents in your wiki's -- [[MediaWiki:Wikia.css]] (see [[w:Help:Including_additional_CSS_and_JS]]) -- or look at https://dev.fandom.com/wiki/Global_Lua_Modules/Mbox -- for more customization inspiration -- -- BEGIN DELETION HERE -- local getArgs = require('Dev:Arguments').getArgs local localCSS = mw.loadData('Module:Mbox/data').localStyle function Mbox.main(frame) local args = getArgs(frame) -- styles local styles = {} if args.bordercolor then styles['border-left-color'] = args.bordercolor elseif args.type then styles['border-left-color'] = 'var(--type-' .. args.type ..

Clearing means that the content following the template will not be displayed until the existing content on the specified sides (for example, "hanging" or floating images or blocks) is displayed completely. This template is often used so that the text does not flow around unrelated images. The template adds the following code to the page: <code><nowiki><div style="clear:left/right/both;"></div></nowiki></code> (the value after <code>clear</code> depends on the parameters). This code affects elements with the CSS property <code>float</code>, including files floated to the side (for example, <code><nowiki>[[File:Image.png|right]]</nowiki></code>). ;Syntax * To clear both sides of the page, add the code {{t|Clear}}. * To clear only the left side of the page, add the code {{t|Clear|left}}. * To clear only the right side of the page, add the code {{t|Clear|right}}. You can also use {{t|-}} instead of {{t|Clear}} as a shorthand call for this template. __NOTOC__ ;Example <pre style="display:table"> === Section 1 === [[File:Example.jpg|200px|right]] Section 1 text. === Section 2 === Section 2 text. {{Clear|right}} === Section 3 === Section 3 text. </pre> This code produces the following result: ---- === Section 1 === [[File:Example.jpg|200px|right]] Section 1 text. === Section 2 === Section 2 text. {{Clear|right}} === Section 3 === Section 3 text. ---- As you can see above, the example image added in section 1 is displayed to the right and extends down through section 2, while the {{t|Clear}} template is called at the end of the second section, resulting in the example image not being next to section 3. Thus, one use of the {{t|Clear}} template is to control which elements are displayed next to which other elements. == See also == * [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/clear CSS property <code>clear</code> on MDN] * [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/float CSS property <code>float</code> on MDN] <includeonly>[[Category:General wiki templates]]</includeonly><noinclude>[[Category:Template documentation]]</noinclude> 23cbf4a368710af74b5a7e729c6a7205939cd5de 6 110 110 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 {{PD}} [[Category:Images]] wikitext text/x-wiki == Summary == {{PD}} [[Category:Images]] b45ad4275ad2f01c536d8fee443ea7264309586b 14 111 111 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 Created page with "[[Category:Media]]" wikitext text/x-wiki [[Category:Media]] b141d2b9971d6efe9f59bd03449781e71411c631 14 112 112 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 Created page with "[[Category:Media]]" wikitext text/x-wiki [[Category:Media]] b141d2b9971d6efe9f59bd03449781e71411c631 14 113 113 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 Created page with "[[Category:{{SITENAME}}]]" wikitext text/x-wiki [[Category:{{SITENAME}}]] dd8aaa34cf600c1567d240a3f4bc615164a11592 10 114 114 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 wikitext text/x-wiki ;Description :This template is used for creating a pipe followed by a hyphen which denotes a new table row, in [[w:Help:Table|wikitables]] contained in [[w:Help:Parser functions|Parser functions]]. ;Syntax :Insert this template using <code>{{t|!-}}</code> <includeonly>[[Category:General wiki templates]]</includeonly><noinclude>[[Category:Template documentation]]</noinclude> 8565bca0220d10c0da77f922505b3ca9c9bc1be7 10 115 115 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 wikitext text/x-wiki <includeonly><infobox> <title source="title"> <default>{{PAGENAME}}</default> </title> <image source="image"> <caption source="caption"/> </image> <data source="developer"><label>Developer</label></data> <data source="publisher"><label>Publisher</label></data> <data source="engine"><label>Engine</label></data> <data source="version"><label>Version</label></data> <data source="platform"><label>Platform</label></data> <data source="releasedate"><label>Release date</label></data> <data source="genre"><label>Genre</label></data> <data source="mode"><label>Mode</label></data> <data source="rating"><label>Rating</label></data> <data source="media"><label>Media</label></data> <group collapse="open"> <header>System requirements</header> <data source="requirements"></data> </group> </infobox></includeonly><noinclude>{{Documentation}}</noinclude> 632ebe6f3e8bab75f012f57996157e6b71f04c2c 10 116 116 2020-08-18T12:57:15Z FANDOM 32769624 wikitext text/x-wiki == Description == To use this template, add the {{T|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}} template and fill in the appropriate fields.

is a suggested set of rules to follow when editing this wiki. Administrators of this wiki should read these rules and adapt them as necessary. # '''Keep it civil''': Do not make personal attacks on other people. If you need to criticize another user’s argument, do so without attacking them as a person. Do not use bigoted language, including slurs which degrade another person or group of people based on gender, race, sexual orientation, nationality, religion, etc. # '''Be a productive member of the wiki''': Contribute to the wiki in line with the established processes and conventions. Need help? Ask an [[Special:ListUsers/sysop|administrator]]! Disrupting the wiki with “edit warring” over differing opinions of a topic with another user or group of users is not productive. # '''Do not engage in excessive self-promotion''': The wiki is a collaborative community resource for the topic at hand. It is NOT a free place to advertise your related website, YouTube channel, blog, social media account, etc. Have a question about whether your link would be welcome?

Broadly speaking, a hatnote should answer a readers' question: Am I on the right page? == Usage == ; Basic usage: &#123;{hatnote|''text''}} ; All parameters: &#123;{hatnote|''text''|extraclasses=''extra classes''|selfref=''yes''|category=''no''}} == Parameters == This template accepts the following parameters: * <code>1</code> - the hatnote text (required) * <code>extraclasses</code> - any extra CSS classes to be added. * <code>selfref</code> - If set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", adds the CSS class "selfref". This is used to denote self-references. * <code>category</code> - If set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", suppresses the error tracking category (Category:Hatnote templates with errors). This has an effect only if the leftmost parameter (the hatnote text) is omitted. == Example == * <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|Example hatnote text}}</nowiki></code> → {{hatnote|Example hatnote text}} == Typical types == {{T|Main}}, {{T|Further}} are very similar, but indicate either the primary page for a topic or more detailed related topic. They have a nearly identical set of parameters. ;{{T|Main}}: When an article is large, it often has a summary and a link to a main article. This template is used after the heading of the summary, to indicate a link to the subtopic article that has been summarized. ;{{T|Further}}: Used to link to articles containing further information on this topic. ;{{T|See also}}: Used to link to additional articles on related topics. :;{{T|Main|Main Page}} →:{{Main|Main Page}} :;{{T|Main|Main Page|Main Page}} →:{{Main|Main Page|Main Page}} :*<code>1</code>, <code>2</code>, <code>3</code>, ... – the pages to link to. If no page names are specified, the current page name is used instead (without the namespace prefix). Categories and files are automatically escaped with the [[w:Help:Colon trick|colon trick]], and links to sections are automatically formatted as ''page § section'', rather than the MediaWiki default of ''page#section''. :*<code>l1</code>, <code>l2</code>, <code>l3</code>, ... ''or''<code>label 1</code>, <code>label 2</code>, <code>label 3</code>, ... – optional labels for each of the pages to link to (this is for articles where a piped link would be used). Note that the extra parameters use a lower case 'L', for example, <code>l1</code>, <u>not</u> <code>L1</code>. :*<code>selfref</code> – if set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", adds the CSS class "selfref". This is used to denote self-references. == Disambiguation == Templates such as {{T|About}} and {{T|For}} are to be used in cases where a disambiguation is not needed. In general, disambiguation pages should only be used for 4 or more titles that are mostly or entirely identical, except for a qualifier. ;{{T|About}}: Links the reader to other articles with similar titles or concepts that they may have been seeking instead. The template has several formats, including: :;{{T|About|Use1}} →:<nowiki>{{About|}}</nowiki> :;{{T|About|Use1|<nowiki/>|Main Page}} →:{{About|Use1||Main Page}} :;{{T|About|Use1|<nowiki/>|Main Page|and|Main Page}} →:{{About|Use1||Main Page|and|Main Page}} :;{{T|About|Use1|Use2|Main Page}} →:{{About|Use1|Use2|Main Page}} :;{{T|About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|and|Main Page}} →:{{About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|and|Main Page}} :;{{T|About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|other uses}} →:<nowiki>{{About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|other uses}}</nowiki> Alternately, a <code>section=yes</code> parameter can be added to the {{T|About}} template for use at the top of a section. When using this parameter, the wording in the template changes to specify that it is being used in a section: :;{{T|About|Use1|<nowiki>section=yes</nowiki>}} →:<nowiki>{{About|Use1|section=yes}}</nowiki> :;{{T|About|Use1|<nowiki/>|Main Page|<nowiki>section=yes</nowiki>}} →:{{About|Use1||Main Page|section=yes}} :;{{T|About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|<nowiki>section=yes</nowiki>}} →:{{About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|section=yes}} :;{{T|About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|and|Main Page|<nowiki>section=yes</nowiki>}} →:{{About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|and|Main Page|section=yes}} :;{{T|About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|other uses|<nowiki>section=yes</nowiki>}} →:<nowiki>{{About|Use1|Use2|Main Page|other uses|section=yes}}</nowiki> A <var>text</var> option adds text to the end; note that this should be only used when truly necessary, and the other hatnote templates listed below don't suffice. This template also supports <var>selfref</var>. ;{{T|For}}: Provides links to up to four articles or disambiguation pages. It accepts zero to five parameters. :;If used without parameters on a page named ''Foo'', the result is ::{{hatnote|For other uses, see Foo (disambiguation).}} :;The first parameter changes the hatnote itself and should be plain text, e.g. {{T|For|similar terms}} yields ::{{hatnote|For similar terms, see Foo (disambiguation).}} :;The second parameter is used to change the resultant link, e.g. {{T|For|similar terms|Main Page}} yields ::{{For|similar terms|Main Page}} :;The third, fourth and fifth parameters are used to give one, two, or three supplementary links: :*{{For|similar terms|Main Page|Main Page}} :*{{For|similar terms|Main Page|Main Page|Main Page}} :*{{For|similar terms|Main Page|Main Page|Main Page|Main Page}} :the last being produced by e.g. {{T|For|similar terms|Main Page|Main Page|Main Page|Main Page}}. == Errors == If no hatnote text is supplied, the template will output the following message: * {{hatnote|category=no}} If you see this error message, it is for one of four reasons: # No parameters were specified (the template code was <code><nowiki>{{hatnote}}</nowiki></code>). Please use <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> instead. # Some parameters were specified, but the hatnote text wasn't included. For example, the template text <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|extraclasses=seealso}}</nowiki></code> will produce this error. Please use (for example) <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>|extraclasses=seealso}}</nowiki></code> instead. # The hatnote text was specified, but that text contains an equals sign ("="). The equals sign has a special meaning in template code, and because of this it cannot be used in template parameters that do not specify a parameter name. For example, the template code <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|2+2=4}}</nowiki></code> will produce this error. To work around this, you can specify the parameter name explicitly by using <code>1=</code> before the hatnote text, like this: <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|1=2+2=4}}</nowiki></code>. # You tried to access [[Module:Hatnote]] directly by using <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:hatnote|hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. Use of #invoke in this way has been disabled for performance reasons. Please use <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> instead. Pages that contain this error message are tracked in Category:Hatnote templates with errors. == Technical details == This template uses the [[w:Help:Lua|Lua templating language]], and more information can be found [[w:c:dev:Global_Lua_Modules/Hatnote|on the Global Lua Module page]]. '''For a traditional wikitext version of this template, see [[w:c:templates:Template:Hatnote|Hatnote on Templates Wiki]]'''. The HTML code produced by this template looks like this: * <code><nowiki><div role="note" class="hatnote"></nowiki>''hatnote text''<nowiki></div></nowiki></code> <includeonly>[[Category:Notice

[[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]], who wonders how many years has it been since he last came to the island. Before going, Ushio tells him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Attempting to stop Ushio, Shinpei tries to reach her, but ends up bumping into something. As he wakes up, he realizes he bumped into a woman and apologizes, but gets slapped by her. Reaching the island, Shinpei recalls its a small island with 700 population in Wakayama City. The island is supported by tourism and fishing and its been two years since he was last there. Shinpei returns on July 22nd to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Shinpei is greeted by a speeding Mio on a bike, Ushio's little sister. She is unable to stop and ends up falling in the water, but acts like she wanted to take a swim. After helping her get out of the water, Mio wonders how is Tokyo's life and if he went to Shibuya, but Shinpei reveals he doesn't get out much. While heading towards the funeral, they chat about various things. Mio reveals that the island now has many people she doesn't know, but lately, even people she knows sometimes seem like strangers. Shinpei guesses its due to the many tourists around this time of the year. Mio laughs, stating that Shinpei now talks normal and has blended in Tokyo's life. At the funeral, Shinpei recalls that he lost his parents 10 years ago and was taken by Kofune family, making Ushio not only a childhood friend, but family too. Befor leaving the island Ushio wanted Shinpei to make her curry, but he blew her off saying he will make it next time, but that time never came. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] hugs Shinpei and cries, explaining that Ushio tried saving a kid, but ended up drowning. Sou apologizes for not being able to do anything and tells Shinpei to hit him until he feels better. However, Shinpei states its fine and since everyone is crying, he is able to remain calm. Shinpei heard that Sou's father performed an autopsy and wonders why. Sou points out at Shiori Kobayakawa, stating its her that Ushio saved, but the girl haven't spoken since then. Shinpei gets called to help with the procession and Sou tells him he will give him the details later. That night, Shinpei prepares curry for Mio, Alain and Ushio. As they eat, a [[Tetsu Totsumura|police officer]] notices Mio standing outside of the house and looking at it. After dinner, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that his father didn't perform an autopsy, but was there just for the police's inquest. However, they found marks on Ushio's neck, similar to strangling, making it possible that Ushio was killed. Sou explains they were playing on the beach behind the elementary school since the tourists don't go there. Ushio noticed Shiori drowning and went first. Mio and Sou then followed, but didn't see anyone suspicious. Sou explains only a few people know about the marks: the police, Mio, his father, Alain and Sou himself. But due to the situation, the police labelled it as incident as it couldn't have been a murder. Mio then knocks on Shinpei's door and gives him Ushio's necklace. She hugs him and cries, stating she will never see Ushio again and won't ever forgive the one who killed her. Shinpei asks her if she knows something, but Mio blows her nose on Shinpei's shirt, saying that he can have the bath now and that Ushio would be mad if she is always depressed, so she will no longer cry. As she leaves, Shinpei looks at the necklace, recalling how he gave it to Ushio, who stated she will treasure it. The next day, Alain reopens his dinner. Shinpei helps out, thinking the best way to distract yourself from a loss is to keep your body moving. A drunk customer, Nakamura, asks Shinpei if he found who he was looking for. As Shinpei wonders what he means, Nakamura explains its a woman with glasses and large bust, which causes Shinpei to question Nakamura if he really meant him. [[Tetsu Totsumura]] enters the dinner and asks for the usual. Shinpei recalls he is related to Kofune's family and is the only police officer on the island. Mio takes his order, but wonders why he didn't came this morning for breakfast. Tetsu explains that all Kobayakawa family had vanished. In the morning, their Koba Mart wasn't open, so their neighbour, Shiomi's wife, peeked in their house and it was all empty. Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. Hearing that, Mio runs outside and Shinpei goes after her. Shinpei finally catches up to Mio. She tells him that Shiori was a bit weird lately and Shinpei guesses its because she stopped talking due to shock. However, Mio explains that around a week before that Shiori said she saw a girl who looked just like Shiori herself. Then Shiori felt being watched each day. A man interrupts them, asking if that ain't the shadow. Mio tells Shinpei the man is [[Ginjiro Nezu]], a hunter. Ginjiro states its the shadow sickness, a disease endemic to this island and it used to be quite common before the war. If you are taken by the shadow sickness, you start seeing your "shadow" and all those who saw it, died, killed by it. The shadow then pretends to be the one it killed and kills the remaining family. Before leaving, Ginjiro says that his grandpa told him that the afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. Mio reveals that her grandma told her the same story when she was little. Three days before Ushio died, Mio saw Ushio's shadow. While picking up trash with Ushio and others, Ushio saw her shadow and pointed it for Mio to see. Shinpei thinks its a joke, but Mio states its truth and the shadow disappeared before their eyes. As Mio haven't told this to anyone else, Shinpei suggest they go see Hiruko like the man suggested. Shinpei recalls that Shiruko is the nickname for the Hito shrine in the northern part of the island. At the shrine, Shinpei tries to open the door, but its locked. Mio then looks at the forest and a figure moves and runs. Mio states she saw Shiori and makes Shinpei run with her after Shiori. They are unable to find her and Shinpei starts to wonder if it was Shiori, why would she run from them. They hear a gunshot and run towards the sound. Shinpei ends up finding the woman with glasses he bumped into on the boat, bleeding from a gun wound. Mio panics and pushes Shinpei towards the woman, while she goes for help. The woman, saying she failed, tells Shinpei to listen, but before she can finish, she gets shot in the head. Shinpei then turns to see Mio holding a gun and having another Mio as hostage, while saying that her father always said that until you wash the dishes and clean everything, the service ain't over. She then pulls the trigger and kills Mio and then shoots Shinpei in the head too. Shinpei then wakes up on the boat, bumping in the woman with the glasses again. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *Shiori Kobayakawa *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] a246a1e68e0682ecb4184aa5a6e792fbb57f6d84 0 252 327 2022-04-06T17:30:27Z Unok 3544775 Created page with "{{Stub}} {{Episode | title = Episode2 | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = 2 | image = | airdate = April 22, 2022 | wri..." wikitext text/x-wiki {{Stub}} {{Episode | title = Episode2 | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = 2 | image = | airdate = April 22, 2022 | writer = | director = | previousEpisode = [[Episode 1]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 3]] }}'''Episode 2''' is the 2nd episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== ==Characters== [[Category:Episodes]] 3ecafe69e5bae746ec60df58ea914fa71a10204a 328 327 2022-04-06T17:30:33Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Stub}} {{Episode | title = Episode 2 | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = 2 | image = | airdate = April 22, 2022 | writer = | director = | previousEpisode = [[Episode 1]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 3]] }}'''Episode 2''' is the 2nd episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== ==Characters== [[Category:Episodes]] a2a6f09e70fb9f22fc9b19852556cec24952339d 0 253 329 2022-04-06T17:31:04Z Unok 3544775 Created page with "{{Stub}} {{Episode | title = Episode 3 | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = 3 | image = | airdate = April 29, 2022 | wr..." wikitext text/x-wiki {{Stub}} {{Episode | title = Episode 3 | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = 3 | image = | airdate = April 29, 2022 | writer = | director = | previousEpisode = [[Episode 2]] | nextEpisode = Episode 4 }}'''Episode 3''' is the 3rd episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== ==Characters== [[Category:Episodes]] f2f22bc3c2c7eff9dd629d7bbf524664b306aad1 0 223 330 257 2022-04-06T17:31:49Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Ushio Kofune | image = Ushio Kofune.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = [[Mio Kofune]] (sister)<br/>[[Alain Kofune]] (father) | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = | gender = Female | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = Anna Nagase | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Ushio Kofune''' (小舟潮, ''Kofune Ushio'') is a 17-year-old girl living in Hitogashima.

Before going, Ushio tells him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Attempting to stop Ushio, Shinpei tries to reach her, but ends up bumping into something. As he wakes up, he realizes he bumped into a woman and apologizes, but gets slapped by her. Reaching the island, Shinpei recalls its a small island with 700 population in Wakayama City. The island is supported by tourism and fishing and its been two years since he was last there. Shinpei returns on July 22nd to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Shinpei is greeted by a speeding Mio on a bike, Ushio's little sister. She is unable to stop and ends up falling in the water, but acts like she wanted to take a swim. After helping her get out of the water, Mio wonders how is Tokyo's life and if he went to Shibuya, but Shinpei reveals he doesn't get out much. While heading towards the funeral, they chat about various things. Mio reveals that the island now has many people she doesn't know, but lately, even people she knows sometimes seem like strangers. Shinpei guesses its due to the many tourists around this time of the year. Mio laughs, stating that Shinpei now talks normal and has blended in Tokyo's life. At the funeral, Shinpei recalls that he lost his parents 10 years ago and was taken by Kofune family, making Ushio not only a childhood friend, but family too. Befor leaving the island Ushio wanted Shinpei to make her curry, but he blew her off saying he will make it next time, but that time never came. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] hugs Shinpei and cries, explaining that Ushio tried saving a kid, but ended up drowning. Sou apologizes for not being able to do anything and tells Shinpei to hit him until he feels better. However, Shinpei states its fine and since everyone is crying, he is able to remain calm. Shinpei heard that Sou's father performed an autopsy and wonders why. Sou points out at Shiori Kobayakawa, stating its her that Ushio saved, but the girl haven't spoken since then. Shinpei gets called to help with the procession and Sou tells him he will give him the details later. That night, Shinpei prepares curry for Mio, Alain and Ushio. As they eat, a [[Tetsu Totsumura|police officer]] notices Mio standing outside of the house and looking at it. After dinner, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that his father didn't perform an autopsy, but was there just for the police's inquest. However, they found marks on Ushio's neck, similar to strangling, making it possible that Ushio was killed. Sou explains they were playing on the beach behind the elementary school since the tourists don't go there. Ushio noticed Shiori drowning and went first. Mio and Sou then followed, but didn't see anyone suspicious. Sou explains only a few people know about the marks: the police, Mio, his father, Alain and Sou himself. But due to the situation, the police labelled it as incident as it couldn't have been a murder. Mio then knocks on Shinpei's door and gives him Ushio's necklace. She hugs him and cries, stating she will never see Ushio again and won't ever forgive the one who killed her. Shinpei asks her if she knows something, but Mio blows her nose on Shinpei's shirt, saying that he can have the bath now and that Ushio would be mad if she is always depressed, so she will no longer cry. As she leaves, Shinpei looks at the necklace, recalling how he gave it to Ushio, who stated she will treasure it. The next day, Alain reopens his dinner. Shinpei helps out, thinking the best way to distract yourself from a loss is to keep your body moving. A drunk customer, Nakamura, asks Shinpei if he found who he was looking for. As Shinpei wonders what he means, Nakamura explains its a woman with glasses and large bust, which causes Shinpei to question Nakamura if he really meant him. [[Tetsu Totsumura]] enters the dinner and asks for the usual. Shinpei recalls he is related to Kofune's family and is the only police officer on the island. Mio takes his order, but wonders why he didn't came this morning for breakfast. Tetsu explains that all Kobayakawa family had vanished. In the morning, their Koba Mart wasn't open, so their neighbour, Shiomi's wife, peeked in their house and it was all empty. Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. Hearing that, Mio runs outside and Shinpei goes after her. Shinpei finally catches up to Mio. She tells him that Shiori was a bit weird lately and Shinpei guesses its because she stopped talking due to shock. However, Mio explains that around a week before that Shiori said she saw a girl who looked just like Shiori herself. Then Shiori felt being watched each day. A man interrupts them, asking if that ain't the shadow. Mio tells Shinpei the man is [[Ginjiro Nezu]], a hunter. Ginjiro states its the shadow sickness, a disease endemic to this island and it used to be quite common before the war. If you are taken by the shadow sickness, you start seeing your "shadow" and all those who saw it, died, killed by it. The shadow then pretends to be the one it killed and kills the remaining family. Before leaving, Ginjiro says that his grandpa told him that the afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. Mio reveals that her grandma told her the same story when she was little. Three days before Ushio died, Mio saw Ushio's shadow. While picking up trash with Ushio and others, Ushio saw her shadow and pointed it for Mio to see. Shinpei thinks its a joke, but Mio states its truth and the shadow disappeared before their eyes. As Mio haven't told this to anyone else, Shinpei suggest they go see Hiruko like the man suggested. Shinpei recalls that Shiruko is the nickname for the Hito shrine in the northern part of the island. At the shrine, Shinpei tries to open the door, but its locked. Mio then looks at the forest and a figure moves and runs. Mio states she saw Shiori and makes Shinpei run with her after Shiori. They are unable to find her and Shinpei starts to wonder if it was Shiori, why would she run from them. They hear a gunshot and run towards the sound. Shinpei ends up finding the woman with glasses he bumped into on the boat, bleeding from a gun wound. Mio panics and pushes Shinpei towards the woman, while she goes for help. The woman, saying she failed, tells Shinpei to listen, but before she can finish, she gets shot in the head. Shinpei then turns to see Mio holding a gun and having another Mio as hostage, while saying that her father always said that until you wash the dishes and clean everything, the service ain't over. She then pulls the trigger and kills Mio and then shoots Shinpei in the head too. Shinpei then wakes up on the boat, bumping in the woman with the glasses again. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *Shiori Kobayakawa *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 3c4d117c016324ff7275c8650cfbd2836bba1d24 364 361 2022-04-16T19:08:48Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = So Long, Summer Days | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 1 | image = Episode 01 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Shinji Matsuda | previousEpisode = | nextEpisode = [[Episode 2]] |storyboard=Ayumu Watanabe|airDate=April 15, 2022|adaptation=Chapter 1}}'''So Long, Summer Days''' (さよなら夏の日, 'Sayonara Natsu no Hi'') is the 1st episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== ==Summary== While returning to Hitogashima, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] dreams of a moment with [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]], who wonders how many years has it been since he last came to the island.

After helping her get out of the water, Mio wonders how is Tokyo's life and if he went to Shibuya, but Shinpei reveals he doesn't get out much. While heading towards the funeral, they chat about various things. Mio reveals that the island now has many people she doesn't know, but lately, even people she knows sometimes seem like strangers. Shinpei guesses its due to the many tourists around this time of the year. Mio laughs, stating that Shinpei now talks normal and has blended in Tokyo's life. At the funeral, Shinpei recalls that he lost his parents 10 years ago and was taken by Kofune family, making Ushio not only a childhood friend, but family too. Befor leaving the island Ushio wanted Shinpei to make her curry, but he blew her off saying he will make it next time, but that time never came. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] hugs Shinpei and cries, explaining that Ushio tried saving a kid, but ended up drowning. Sou apologizes for not being able to do anything and tells Shinpei to hit him until he feels better. However, Shinpei states its fine and since everyone is crying, he is able to remain calm. Shinpei heard that Sou's father performed an autopsy and wonders why. Sou points out at Shiori Kobayakawa, stating its her that Ushio saved, but the girl haven't spoken since then. Shinpei gets called to help with the procession and Sou tells him he will give him the details later. That night, Shinpei prepares curry for Mio, Alain and Ushio. As they eat, a [[Tetsu Totsumura|police officer]] notices Mio standing outside of the house and looking at it. After dinner, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that his father didn't perform an autopsy, but was there just for the police's inquest. However, they found marks on Ushio's neck, similar to strangling, making it possible that Ushio was killed. Sou explains they were playing on the beach behind the elementary school since the tourists don't go there. Ushio noticed Shiori drowning and went first. Mio and Sou then followed, but didn't see anyone suspicious. Sou explains only a few people know about the marks: the police, Mio, his father, Alain and Sou himself. But due to the situation, the police labelled it as incident as it couldn't have been a murder. Mio then knocks on Shinpei's door and gives him Ushio's necklace. She hugs him and cries, stating she will never see Ushio again and won't ever forgive the one who killed her. Shinpei asks her if she knows something, but Mio blows her nose on Shinpei's shirt, saying that he can have the bath now and that Ushio would be mad if she is always depressed, so she will no longer cry. As she leaves, Shinpei looks at the necklace, recalling how he gave it to Ushio, who stated she will treasure it. The next day, Alain reopens his dinner. Shinpei helps out, thinking the best way to distract yourself from a loss is to keep your body moving. A drunk customer, Nakamura, asks Shinpei if he found who he was looking for. As Shinpei wonders what he means, Nakamura explains its a woman with glasses and large bust, which causes Shinpei to question Nakamura if he really meant him. [[Tetsu Totsumura]] enters the dinner and asks for the usual. Shinpei recalls he is related to Kofune's family and is the only police officer on the island. Mio takes his order, but wonders why he didn't came this morning for breakfast. Tetsu explains that all Kobayakawa family had vanished. In the morning, their Koba Mart wasn't open, so their neighbour, Shiomi's wife, peeked in their house and it was all empty. Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. Hearing that, Mio runs outside and Shinpei goes after her. Shinpei finally catches up to Mio. She tells him that Shiori was a bit weird lately and Shinpei guesses its because she stopped talking due to shock. However, Mio explains that around a week before that Shiori said she saw a girl who looked just like Shiori herself. Then Shiori felt being watched each day. A man interrupts them, asking if that ain't the shadow. Mio tells Shinpei the man is [[Ginjiro Nezu]], a hunter. Ginjiro states its the shadow sickness, a disease endemic to this island and it used to be quite common before the war. If you are taken by the shadow sickness, you start seeing your "shadow" and all those who saw it, died, killed by it. The shadow then pretends to be the one it killed and kills the remaining family. Before leaving, Ginjiro says that his grandpa told him that the afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. Mio reveals that her grandma told her the same story when she was little. Three days before Ushio died, Mio saw Ushio's shadow. While picking up trash with Ushio and others, Ushio saw her shadow and pointed it for Mio to see. Shinpei thinks its a joke, but Mio states its truth and the shadow disappeared before their eyes. As Mio haven't told this to anyone else, Shinpei suggest they go see Hiruko like the man suggested. Shinpei recalls that Shiruko is the nickname for the Hito shrine in the northern part of the island. At the shrine, Shinpei tries to open the door, but its locked. Mio then looks at the forest and a figure moves and runs. Mio states she saw Shiori and makes Shinpei run with her after Shiori. They are unable to find her and Shinpei starts to wonder if it was Shiori, why would she run from them. They hear a gunshot and run towards the sound. Shinpei ends up finding the woman with glasses he bumped into on the boat, bleeding from a gun wound. Mio panics and pushes Shinpei towards the woman, while she goes for help. The woman, saying she failed, tells Shinpei to listen, but before she can finish, she gets shot in the head. Shinpei then turns to see Mio holding a gun and having another Mio as hostage, while saying that her father always said that until you wash the dishes and clean everything, the service ain't over. She then pulls the trigger and kills Mio and then shoots Shinpei in the head too. Shinpei then wakes up on the boat, bumping in the woman with the glasses again. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Seido

He then overhears the police officer [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Shinpei finds it strange, as Mio should be inside and was no longer in her school uniform. Mio then kills Tetsu, stabbing him multiple times with a kitchen knife, making him realize that isn't Mio, but a Shadow. A flash then occurs and a Shadow comes out of Shadow Mio's shadow, which then transforms into Tetsu. The Shadow Tetsu then touches the dead Tetsu, causing another flash and disentigrading his body. Shadow Mio informs Shadow Tetsu that he is not Tetsu Totsumura, the police officer. Assuming his role, Mio then asks him to give her his gun, causing Tetsu to realize she still haven't killed the real Mio and taken her place. Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital. Taking the gun, Shadow Mio comments that she can't go in and kill her now or everyone will hear the gunshot and will be just scouting for today. In that moment, Sou who promised to call Shinpei earlier at the funeral, calls Shinpei. As his phone vibrates, Mio hears it, find Shinpei and stabs him in the neck. As he bleed out, Tetsu wonders if Mio will copy him, but starts to explain that Shinpei is already something, but he isn't able to hear the rest. Shinpei then starts floating above his body. He is then being transported elsewhere, but as he travels, he hears Ushio's voice, who tells him to be careful and protect Mio. Shinpei then awakens on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. Knowing that Mio will fall into the water, he stands in front of the bike, stopping her, but getting himself knocked into the water and Mio jumps to save him as he can't swim. Elsewhere, [[Hizuru Minamikata|Hizuru]], the woman with the glasses, records herself while hanging upside down from a tree. She explains how much time its been since she arrived on Hitogashima and what she ate. Hizuru also explains that while hanging upside down, more blood enters her head and she is able to think better. She observes Shiori, commenting its right among the people and that she will keep watch for the moment. That evening, Shinpei calls Tetsu, informing him of a fight and sending him elsewhere, so that he doesn't encounter Shadow Mio. Shinpei then thinks on what to do. He deleted all unneeded apps on his phone to gain more free space and sets his phone recording outside of the house, in order to film Shadow Mio. Shinpei notices his right eye has a different color, but isn't aware when it happened. Worried about Mio, he ends up peeking in the bathroom, but ends up hit with the shower head in the face for peeking. In the morning, Shinpei retrieves his phone. He then heads to Mio's room and shows her the recording, explaining that a Shadow appeared and observed Mio last night and is there to kill Mio. Shinpei states that Ushio also saw her shadow, three days before the incident. Mio confirms, thinking that Ushio had told him this. Mio then guesses that Ushio was killed by a Shadow. ==Characters== *[[Mio Kofune]] *Shiori Kobayakawa *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Hizuru Minamikata‎]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] [[Category:Episodes]] 5158b560ac5dee71f1fe40d41991cda40d555f93 435 432 2022-04-22T15:35:59Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Shadow | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 2 | image = Episode 02 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Jun'ichi Yamamoto | previousEpisode = [[Episode 1]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 3]] |airDate=April 22, 2022|storyboard=Jun'ichi Yamamoto|adaptation=[[Chapter 2]]<br> [[Chapter 3]]<br> [[Chapter 4]]<br> [[Chapter 5]]<br> [[Chapter 6]]<br> [[Chapter 7]] (p. 1-3)}}'''Shadow''' (影, ''Kage'') is the 2nd episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei was supposed to have been shot in the head by Mio's "shadow," but when he regained consciousness, he was on a ferry heading to Hitogashima. After that, the "same events as before the shooting" were repeated. While alone with his thoughts, Shinpei witnesses the murder of the island's resident, Totsumura, by Mio, who stabbed him to death with a kitchen knife. He also sees the "shadow" of Dekomura being generated from the murdered Totsumura. Shinpei is shocked by what happens in front of his eyes, but then he sees Mio holding a kitchen knife. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] dreams of the incident where [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] died and witness how [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] attempts to provide first aid and bring Ushio to life. Shinpei then awakens at the boat heading Hitogashima and bumps into the same woman as before and gets slapped again. She wonders if he is okay, as it looked like he had a bad dream. Shinpei recalls its the woman from the forest and asks her if she was ever shot by a handgun, making her wonder even more if he is okay. Shinpei looks at his phone and sees its July 22nd, but recall going to Hiruko on 23rd with Mio. Shinpei then thinks of the novel "Swampman", a mystery-horror story taking place in Wakayama City, where a young girl believes her family and friends are replaced by copies. He assumes he had this nightmare because he felt asleep while reading the novel. Stepping on the island, Shinpei feels he had already experienced this moment.

''Sayonara Natsu no Hi'') is the 1st episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei Ajiro returns to his hometown of Hitogashima in Wakayama City for the first time in two years upon hearing the news of the death of his childhood friend, Ushio Kofune. Shinpei attends the funeral and is told by his best friend, Seido Hishigata, that there is a possibility that Ushio was murdered by someone else. Furthermore, even Ushio's sister, Mio, complains that Ushio was murdered. There is a tradition on Hitogashima that anyone who sees a "shadow" that looks like him or her will die. Before her death, Mio saw Ushio's "shadow"... ==Summary== While returning to Hitogashima, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] dreams of a moment with [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]], who wonders how many years has it been since he last came to the island. Before going, Ushio tells him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Attempting to stop Ushio, Shinpei tries to reach her, but ends up bumping into something. As he wakes up, he realizes he bumped into a woman and apologizes, but gets slapped by her. Reaching the island, Shinpei recalls its a small island with 700 population in Wakayama City. The island is supported by tourism and fishing and its been two years since he was last there. Shinpei returns on July 22nd to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Shinpei is greeted by a speeding Mio on a bike, Ushio's little sister. She is unable to stop and ends up falling in the water, but acts like she wanted to take a swim. After helping her get out of the water, Mio wonders how is Tokyo's life and if he went to Shibuya, but Shinpei reveals he doesn't get out much. While heading towards the funeral, they chat about various things. Mio reveals that the island now has many people she doesn't know, but lately, even people she knows sometimes seem like strangers. Shinpei guesses its due to the many tourists around this time of the year. Mio laughs, stating that Shinpei now talks normal and has blended in Tokyo's life. At the funeral, Shinpei recalls that he lost his parents 10 years ago and was taken by Kofune family, making Ushio not only a childhood friend, but family too. Befor leaving the island Ushio wanted Shinpei to make her curry, but he blew her off saying he will make it next time, but that time never came. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] hugs Shinpei and cries, explaining that Ushio tried saving a kid, but ended up drowning. Sou apologizes for not being able to do anything and tells Shinpei to hit him until he feels better. However, Shinpei states its fine and since everyone is crying, he is able to remain calm. Shinpei heard that Sou's father performed an autopsy and wonders why. Sou points out at Shiori Kobayakawa, stating its her that Ushio saved, but the girl haven't spoken since then. Shinpei gets called to help with the procession and Sou tells him he will give him the details later. That night, Shinpei prepares curry for Mio, Alain and Ushio. As they eat, a [[Tetsu Totsumura|police officer]] notices Mio standing outside of the house and looking at it. After dinner, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that his father didn't perform an autopsy, but was there just for the police's inquest. However, they found marks on Ushio's neck, similar to strangling, making it possible that Ushio was killed. Sou explains they were playing on the beach behind the elementary school since the tourists don't go there. Ushio noticed Shiori drowning and went first. Mio and Sou then followed, but didn't see anyone suspicious. Sou explains only a few people know about the marks: the police, Mio, his father, Alain and Sou himself. But due to the situation, the police labelled it as incident as it couldn't have been a murder. Mio then knocks on Shinpei's door and gives him Ushio's necklace. She hugs him and cries, stating she will never see Ushio again and won't ever forgive the one who killed her. Shinpei asks her if she knows something, but Mio blows her nose on Shinpei's shirt, saying that he can have the bath now and that Ushio would be mad if she is always depressed, so she will no longer cry. As she leaves, Shinpei looks at the necklace, recalling how he gave it to Ushio, who stated she will treasure it. The next day, Alain reopens his dinner. Shinpei helps out, thinking the best way to distract yourself from a loss is to keep your body moving. A drunk customer, Nakamura, asks Shinpei if he found who he was looking for. As Shinpei wonders what he means, Nakamura explains its a woman with glasses and large bust, which causes Shinpei to question Nakamura if he really meant him. [[Tetsu Totsumura]] enters the dinner and asks for the usual. Shinpei recalls he is related to Kofune's family and is the only police officer on the island. Mio takes his order, but wonders why he didn't came this morning for breakfast. Tetsu explains that all Kobayakawa family had vanished. In the morning, their Koba Mart wasn't open, so their neighbour, Shiomi's wife, peeked in their house and it was all empty. Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. Hearing that, Mio runs outside and Shinpei goes after her. Shinpei finally catches up to Mio. She tells him that Shiori was a bit weird lately and Shinpei guesses its because she stopped talking due to shock. However, Mio explains that around a week before that Shiori said she saw a girl who looked just like Shiori herself. Then Shiori felt being watched each day. A man interrupts them, asking if that ain't the shadow. Mio tells Shinpei the man is [[Ginjiro Nezu]], a hunter. Ginjiro states its the shadow sickness, a disease endemic to this island and it used to be quite common before the war. If you are taken by the shadow sickness, you start seeing your "shadow" and all those who saw it, died, killed by it. The shadow then pretends to be the one it killed and kills the remaining family. Before leaving, Ginjiro says that his grandpa told him that the afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. Mio reveals that her grandma told her the same story when she was little. Three days before Ushio died, Mio saw Ushio's shadow. While picking up trash with Ushio and others, Ushio saw her shadow and pointed it for Mio to see. Shinpei thinks its a joke, but Mio states its truth and the shadow disappeared before their eyes. As Mio haven't told this to anyone else, Shinpei suggest they go see Hiruko like the man suggested. Shinpei recalls that Shiruko is the nickname for the Hito shrine in the northern part of the island. At the shrine, Shinpei tries to open the door, but its locked. Mio then looks at the forest and a figure moves and runs. Mio states she saw Shiori and makes Shinpei run with her after Shiori. They are unable to find her and Shinpei starts to wonder if it was Shiori, why would she run from them. They hear a gunshot and run towards the sound. Shinpei ends up finding the woman with glasses he bumped into on the boat, bleeding from a gun wound. Mio panics and pushes Shinpei towards the woman, while she goes for help. The woman, saying she failed, tells Shinpei to listen, but before she can finish, she gets shot in the head. Shinpei then turns to see Mio holding a gun and having another Mio as hostage, while saying that her father always said that until you wash the dishes and clean everything, the service ain't over. She then pulls the trigger and kills Mio and then shoots Shinpei in the head too. Shinpei then wakes up on the boat, bumping in the woman with the glasses again. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *Shiori Kobayakawa *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] d03cfdc5468b88be04371f39077a33fd30a162de 0 225 437 406 2022-04-22T15:47:01Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Mio Kofune | image = Mio Kofune.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = [[Ushio Kofune]] (sister)<br/>[[Alain Kofune]] (father) | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = | gender = Female | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = Saho Shirasu | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Mio Kofune''' (小舟澪, ''Kofune Mio'') is Ushio's younger sister and a first-year high school student.

While Shiomi goes to look around, Shinpei notices black stains left just like Tetsu's Shadow did to Tetsu. Shinpei figures out that they must have been attacked during dinner last night and also sees some strange dents on the floor. As the black stains are adult-size, Shinpei decides to check the second floor for Shiori. Going there, he tries to turn on the lights, but notices a flash behind him. Shiori stands behind him and asks him why he asked her yesterday if she had seem a girl like her. She wonders why is he starring at her and if there is something wrong with her. Shinpei then realizes that Shiori is a shadow and she was at the funeral. As Shiori creates a shadow, he realizes that the flash at the funeral already afflicted with him a shadow sickness. Shiomi then comes and Shiori decides to leave. After calling the police for the missing Kobayakawa family, Shinpei leaves and wonders what to do next.

Mio suggests they go to Hiruko, but recalling that Shadow Mio is there, Shinpei wants to avoid it and wonders about tomorrow. Sou reminds him that tomorrow is the festival and its going to be the busiest time of the year for the shrine, thus the priest won't have time for them.

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kobune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but befor they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She explains before she died, she had one wish and thats it to see Shinpei one more time. The way she talks and behave, make Shinpei think that she indeed returned from the dead. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. Shinpei tries to remain calm and not be fooled. He asks her why she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. Shinpei realizes that Ushio doesn't think she is a shadow and goes after her at the festival. As she is still in her swimsuit and people stare at her, he takes her and runs away. He tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. As she hit him before warning him, Shinpei feels that's exactly what the real Ushio would have done. The two then talk for a bit and Ushio has all the memories of when they were young, but doesn't know anything about shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her. That shocks Mio, but Shinpei quickly explains its him and Mio is imagining it. Mio then tells him that the fireworks are over and they are at the shrine. Shinpei tells her he will come and tells Ushio to stay hidden until he comes back. He reminds her that she told him to protect Mio, but Ushio has no such memory. Shinpei joins Mio and the rest and they watch the ceremony of "omiokuri". On Hitogashima, they believe that anything that washes ashore, god dwells in it, the deity Hiruko no Mikoto, the god of fishing. They collect all wreckage and burn it during the summer festival, sending the god off. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] wants to talk with Mio in private. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] tells Shinpei that Sou intends to confess to Mio, but thinks won't work out as Mio already loves someone else. Shinpei wonders who, but Tokiko refuses to tell him. Sou then asks Tokiko and Shinpei to listen and tells Mio that he loves her and wants to protect her. However, Mio states she likes him, but wishes they to remain friends. A disguised Ushio then appears and tries to cheer up Sou. As her disguise is poor, everyone quickly recognizes her. She attempts to deny it, but as its too late, she states she wanted to see them. However, Mio states its not Ushio, but a monster and warns Shinpei to stay away from her as she is a shadow. Shinpei refuses, and grabs Ushio, causing her pain. He then looks at Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. As a shadow comes out of Sinpei, everyone realizes that Shinpei is a shadow too. About ten minutes earlier, while running towards the shrine, Shinpei encounters shadow Mio who had just killed someone. Shadow Mio then grabs and throws Shinpei, stating that she heard he recorded her, but that wouldn't be possible, unless he knew she was coming. Shinpei notices many black strains, realizes Mio had just killed many people. Mio asks if the traitor told him, but as the plan is almost complete, she can't let any interference. A shadow Shinpei then appears and wonders how many times has Shinpei died, and creates a flash. Shinpei realizes that the flash at Shiori's house made a copy of him and all of his memories until then, but this new flash will now update and learn everything. Mio then tries to kill Shinpei, but shadow Shinpei stops her, stating they need to think a bit more and if they kill him, he can just loop again. Shadow Shinpei states that Shinpei can't control it on will, but if he keeps returning to 22nd, he will one day become a hindrance. Shadow Shinpei tells Mio to take his phone and to send others to get Ushio. He then proceeds towards the shrine. Shinpei wishes to stop him, but Mio breaks his arm, stating he is struggling pointlessly as Mother will soon wake up. As Shinpei keeps struggling, Mio wonders if she should break his leg too, but in that moment, [[Hizuru Minamikata|Hizuru]] appears and shoots her in the head. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Hizuru Minamikata]] [[Category:Episodes]] 28c6b124ad66cc1449dc839b1bf47b45d2b6ec9d 6 300 515 492 2022-05-06T16:53:51Z Unok 3544775 Unok uploaded a new version of [[File:Episode 03 Title.png]] wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 301 516 495 2022-05-06T16:54:04Z Unok 3544775 Unok uploaded a new version of [[File:Episode 04 Title.png]] wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 0 221 517 476 2022-05-06T17:24:35Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Shinpei Ajiro | image = Shinpei Ajiro.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = | gender = Male | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = Natsuki Hanae | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Shinpei Ajiro''' (網代 慎平, ''Ajiro Shinpei'') is a 17-year-old boy who returned to his hometown of Hitogashima for the first time in two years to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, [[Ushio Kofune]]. Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kobune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up.

[[Hizuru Minamikata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. <!--- fourth cycle ---> Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him.

As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro.

Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei is saved by a woman who was a passenger on the ferry. She identified herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, a writer whom Shinpei admired, and said that she had come to rescue "Shinpei Ajiro". She also possessed a great deal of knowledge about "shadows". Meanwhile, a massacre by "shadows" was taking place at a summer festival. Shinpei goes to help, but his friends are killed one after another. Soon, the "shadow" swallows up everyone on the island. ==Summary== [[Hizuru Minamikata|Hizuru]] shoots the shadow Mio in the head. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] recognizes her as the woman from the boat, but then notices that Mio is gone. Mio had turned into a shadow on the ground and slides behind Hizuru. She then comes out of the shadow an attempts to stab Hizuru, however, Hizuru dodges and points the gun at Mio's shadow on the ground and shoots it. Mio is surprised she managed to dodge that and due to the gunshot, she falls apart and disappears. Hizuru explains that she haven't been on the island since she was a kid, and introduces her as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and had come to save Shinpei. Shinpei recognizes the name, but before he can say anything, Hizuru pulls him to the side, stating that a Shadow is coming. They see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] coming and running up the stairs. Shinpei wants to go up, but Hizuru stops him, saying that that's where the Shadows are gathering. Shinpei wonders if she can tell humans from Shadows and Hizuru explains that above the shadow is just a lump of flesh in human shape. He needs to look at their feet, where their true form is the flat shadow cast upon the ground. They hate when someone steps on them and only a Shadow will move to avoid being stepped on. According to Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. Hizuru notes that the shadows number had increased drastically in the last three days, no matter how many she kills and feels they may have a goal. A flash occurs on top of the hill and Shinpei requests Hizuru's help as he wants to save Mio. He runs up the stairs and finds [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]], who starts crying and is then killed by a shadow. The shadow states the hour of nine is approaching and the festival is over, revealing a big pile of dead humans behind it. Shinpei freezes for a moment, but subconsciously starts counting the shadows. He sees shadow [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] who had hit Sou in the head with an axe as he was protecting [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Shadow Sou then proceeds to attack Mio, but Hizuru blows his hands with the shotgun. The main shadow then creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru. Hizuru then sees the gun shooting and she dying and quickly dodges, but gets shot in the arm and guesses that shadow is the parent. The shadow then grabs Shinpei, looking at its right eye and he realizes it must by the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he have it, but states he can control time with it. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. The parent shadow states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei struggles to get to Mio, but before he is able to reach her, she gets consumed, along with the rest of the dead bodies. The parent shadow offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. The parent shadow starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. At Hishigata Hospital, [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] is with a shadow in a wheelchair. Looking at the red light, he comments that she had recovered after consuming thousand humans. Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, saying she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not over and asks her to shoot him in the head, saying that no matter how many times he dies, he will start over. The parent shadow prepares to consume him as well, but Ushio comes and punches him. Hizuru tells Shinpei that if he really can go back, to find her and say his name. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei in the head. Shinpei then finds himself floating in air. He sees the island is engulfed in shadow and a red girl, who then notices him as well. Shinpei then clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. Shinpei returns to July 22nd, after he came to the island and met Mio. Later, Shinpei starts thinking about the situation and what Ushio told him. He realizes that each time, his starting points moves ahead. He realizes he can't keep failing as eventually will reach a point where Mio and the rest will start dying and he will never be able to save them.

Hizuru Minakata is the woman who met Shinpei on the ferry and told him the name "Ryunosuke Nagumo". Hitogashima was her hometown too, and she had returned home for the first time in 14 years in order to unravel a mysterious message left on her cell phone. Hizuru learns of the existence of "Shadows" and "Heine," and joins up with Ginjiro, a hunter, to discover that many of the islanders have been replaced by Shadows. ==Summary== Arriving on Hitogashima, [[Hizuru Minamikata|Hizuru]] is about to step on a man's shadow, but the shadow moves avoiding being stepped on, making Hizuru realize that the man is a Shadow and the message she got is now much more believable. She then sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] heading towards [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] calling him "Shin" and wonders if he is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru sees a notification about [[Ushio Kofune]]'s funeral and recognizing the Kofune name, she decides to attend it. There, even after fourteen years, [[Masahito Karikiri]] recognizes Hizuru, who steps on his shadow and confirms that he isn't one of them. Hizuru wonders if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and Masahito confirms, saying there was an accident yesterday. He wonders why she came back, but then interrupts Hizuru trying to guess that she studied for a teacher or doctor, but that only annoys Hizuru who states she remembered why she can't stand him. Masahito calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. Alain remembers Hizuru and is surprised to see her. Hizuru recalls that during her second year of middle school, she was a frequent visitor at Kofune restaurant. Alain had two daughters and his wife passed away after giving birth to Mio. She would meet Ushio there and would sometimes tell Ushio her original stories. Alain receives a call from Mio, who tells him that she and Shinpei fell into the ocean and will be a bit later. Overhearing that, Hizuru asks about Shinpei, and Alain explains its his best friend's son, Shinpei Ajiro, who he took in. Masahito explains that about ten years ago, both of his parents died in a boating accident. Hearing that, Hizuru realizes that the boy sitting in front of her on the boat was Shinpei and she decides to avoid him for now. Alain follows her and tells Hizuru about Ushio's marks on the neck. Hizuru asks if they checked under her nails for blood or skin, but Alain says they didn't check. Alain wonders if this case reminds Hizuru of Ryuunosuke's death fourteen years ago. Hizuru then returns to Ushio's coffin and opens it, to check her neck. She asks who dressed the body and Alain tells her it was a nurse from the Hishigata Clinic. Hizuru starts leaving, but asks Alain if before Ushio's death, she mentioned she saw her doppleganger. Asako Isokane recognizes Hizuru, an old fried of her, who was visiting the Kofune restaurant with her. Asako explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa|Shiori]] during the accident. However, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot. Seeing the rest of the Kobayakawa's, Hizuru gets angry for the shadows acting like they care for Ushio. Hizuru reveals to [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. As they are growing in numbers, Ginjiro states that one of them has the ability to produce more Shadows. Hizuru guesses that a Shadow was drowning Shiori and killed and erased her, but then played and acted like she was the one drowning, and then killed and replaced the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives Ginjiro her second phone and tells him to contact her if it rings. Shinpei reaches the funeral, and decides to repeat all the conversations he had. He tells Shiori that she probably saw a Shadow and to keep away from duplicate if she sees her again. A bit later, Asako mentions that Shinpei told Shiori about "Shadows" and he confirms its something he heard from Mio when they were young. In that moment, Shinpei notices an ant walking over Asako's and her husband's shadows and they avoiding being stepped on by the ant, and realizes they are already Shadows. As they leave, Mio approaches him and Shinpei asks her if yesterday she was with white panties. Mio is shocked that its the first thing he asks her after two years. Shinpei recalls that he managed to see Mio's panties when she killed him, but today she is wearing blue and white stripped panties. Mio confirms it and he realizes she was copied yesterday. Elsewhere, Shadow Mio produces a shadow with Alain memories, and learns that he too doesn't know where Ushio is. At 1:30PM, Ushio's casket enters the furnace and after collecting her remains, everyone have a lunch in a special room. Shinpei plans to ask two questions those he suspects. The first is if they had heard about shadow sickness and second if they had seen a well-endowed lady. As he asks around, Alain tells him that's Hizuru and gives him a note she gave him, when he asked her about her contact info. Shinpei recognizes the text as being a code from her book Adrift. After cracking it, Shinpei calls the phone number and Ginjiro picks up. After Shinpei introduces himself, Ginjiro does the same and states he is an acquaintance to Hizuru. As Shinpei is in the crematorium, Ginjiro tells him to go back alone to the funeral hall. Getting there, Ginjiro tells him to stand still and shoot at Shinpei's shadow. At the same time, Alain had went to the bathroom. Hizuru follows him and puts "maintenance" note on the stall he enters and goes into the other. A shadow Alain then comes and as he opens her stall, she smashes the shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills the Shadow Alain. Hizuru then receives a call from Ginjiro. After confirming Shinpei isn't a shadow, Ginjiro invites him to the fourth battery. As he meets Ginjiro there, Ginjiro tells him that he has some questions. Ginjiro notes that to solve the code you need to know the author, Ryuunosuke Nagumo, and her real name. However, Hizuru haven't told anyone else except Ginjiro that she is Ryuunosuke. Which would mean, no one could call the phone unless there is a Shadow that copied Hizuru, however Shinpei is human. Hizuru appears and Shinpei gives her his copy of Swampman and asks her for an autograph and to write his name Shinpei Ajiro. As he had said his name in front of her, he wonders what will happen now. Hizuru notes that he isn't normal and signs his book. She then tells him to correct her if the next thing is false. She notes that he didn't knew who she was on the boat and that there is no way to know her identity unless she revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minamikata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *Asako Isokane *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Shiori Kobayakawa]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] f94b8137f0dcc6ed1fd322c9566606a7fb1ca951 569 567 2022-05-21T15:19:07Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Orbital Resonance | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 6 | image = Episode 06 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Yoshitsugu Kimura | previousEpisode = [[Episode 5]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 7]] |airDate = May 20, 2022 |storyboard = Shingo Kaneko |adaptation = }}'''Orbital Resonance''' (軌道共鳴, ''Kidōkyōmei'') is the 6th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== July 22nd, the fourth time.

Hizuru starts leaving, but asks Alain if before Ushio's death, she mentioned she saw her doppleganger. Asako Isokane recognizes Hizuru, an old fried of her, who was visiting the Kofune restaurant with her. Asako explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa|Shiori]] during the accident. However, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot. Seeing the rest of the Kobayakawa's, Hizuru gets angry for the shadows acting like they care for Ushio. Hizuru reveals to [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. As they are growing in numbers, Ginjiro states that one of them has the ability to produce more Shadows. Hizuru guesses that a Shadow was drowning Shiori and killed and erased her, but then played and acted like she was the one drowning, and then killed and replaced the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives Ginjiro her second phone and tells him to contact her if it rings. Shinpei reaches the funeral, and decides to repeat all the conversations he had. He tells Shiori that she probably saw a Shadow and to keep away from duplicate if she sees her again. A bit later, Asako mentions that Shinpei told Shiori about "Shadows" and he confirms its something he heard from Mio when they were young. In that moment, Shinpei notices an ant walking over Asako's and her husband's shadows and they avoiding being stepped on by the ant, and realizes they are already Shadows. As they leave, Mio approaches him and Shinpei asks her if yesterday she was with white panties. Mio is shocked that its the first thing he asks her after two years. Shinpei recalls that he managed to see Mio's panties when she killed him, but today she is wearing blue and white stripped panties. Mio confirms it and he realizes she was copied yesterday. Elsewhere, Shadow Mio produces a shadow with Alain memories, and learns that he too doesn't know where Ushio is. At 1:30PM, Ushio's casket enters the furnace and after collecting her remains, everyone have a lunch in a special room. Shinpei plans to ask two questions those he suspects. The first is if they had heard about shadow sickness and second if they had seen a well-endowed lady. As he asks around, Alain tells him that's Hizuru and gives him a note she gave him, when he asked her about her contact info. Shinpei recognizes the text as being a code from her book Adrift. After cracking it, Shinpei calls the phone number and Ginjiro picks up. After Shinpei introduces himself, Ginjiro does the same and states he is an acquaintance to Hizuru. As Shinpei is in the crematorium, Ginjiro tells him to go back alone to the funeral hall. Getting there, Ginjiro tells him to stand still and shoot at Shinpei's shadow. At the same time, Alain had went to the bathroom. Hizuru follows him and puts "maintenance" note on the stall he enters and goes into the other. A shadow Alain then comes and as he opens her stall, she smashes the shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills the Shadow Alain. Hizuru then receives a call from Ginjiro. After confirming Shinpei isn't a shadow, Ginjiro invites him to the fourth battery. As he meets Ginjiro there, Ginjiro tells him that he has some questions. Ginjiro notes that to solve the code you need to know the author, Ryuunosuke Nagumo, and her real name. However, Hizuru haven't told anyone else except Ginjiro that she is Ryuunosuke. Which would mean, no one could call the phone unless there is a Shadow that copied Hizuru, however Shinpei is human. Hizuru appears and Shinpei gives her his copy of Swampman and asks her for an autograph and to write his name Shinpei Ajiro. As he had said his name in front of her, he wonders what will happen now. Hizuru notes that he isn't normal and signs his book. She then tells him to correct her if the next thing is false. She notes that he didn't knew who she was on the boat and that there is no way to know her identity unless she revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minamikata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *Asako Isokane *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Shiori Kobayakawa]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] fd07375fbd1f999f9871ed45b7b29cad139b4f5d 570 569 2022-05-21T15:19:34Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Orbital Resonance | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 6 | image = Episode 06 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Yoshitsugu Kimura | previousEpisode = [[Episode 5]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 7]] |airDate = May 20, 2022 |storyboard = Shingo Kaneko |adaptation = }}'''Orbital Resonance''' (軌道共鳴, ''Kidōkyōmei'') is the 6th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== July 22nd, the fourth time.

Hitogashima was her hometown too, and she had returned home for the first time in 14 years in order to unravel a mysterious message left on her cell phone. Hizuru learns of the existence of "Shadows" and "Heine," and joins up with Ginjiro, a hunter, to discover that many of the islanders have been replaced by Shadows. ==Summary== Arriving on Hitogashima, [[Hizuru Minamikata|Hizuru]] is about to step on a man's shadow, but the shadow moves avoiding being stepped on, making Hizuru realize that the man is a Shadow and the message she got is now much more believable. She then sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] heading towards [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] calling him "Shin" and wonders if he is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru sees a notification about [[Ushio Kofune]]'s funeral and recognizing the Kofune name, she decides to attend it. There, even after fourteen years, [[Masahito Karikiri]] recognizes Hizuru, who steps on his shadow and confirms that he isn't one of them. Hizuru wonders if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and Masahito confirms, saying there was an accident yesterday. He wonders why she came back, but then interrupts Hizuru trying to guess that she studied for a teacher or doctor, but that only annoys Hizuru who states she remembered why she can't stand him. Masahito calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. Alain remembers Hizuru and is surprised to see her. Hizuru recalls that during her second year of middle school, she was a frequent visitor at Kofune restaurant. Alain had two daughters and his wife passed away after giving birth to Mio. She would meet Ushio there and would sometimes tell Ushio her original stories. Alain receives a call from Mio, who tells him that she and Shinpei fell into the ocean and will be a bit later. Overhearing that, Hizuru asks about Shinpei, and Alain explains its his best friend's son, Shinpei Ajiro, who he took in. Masahito explains that about ten years ago, both of his parents died in a boating accident. Hearing that, Hizuru realizes that the boy sitting in front of her on the boat was Shinpei and she decides to avoid him for now. Alain follows her and tells Hizuru about Ushio's marks on the neck.

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. <!--- second cycle ---> The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. <!--- third cycle ---> On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. <!--- fourth cycle ---> On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minamikata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kobune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minamikata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. <!--- fourth cycle ---> Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kobune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill.

As he describes the woman on the boat, Masahito guesses he is talking about Hizuru. == Etymology == * The name '''Masahito''' means "real, genuine" (真) ('''ma'''), "sand, grit" (砂) ('''sa''') and "person" (人) ('''hito'''). * Masahito's surname '''Karikiri''' means "goose/wild goose" (雁) ('''kari''') and "cut/cutoff/off, be sharp, ardent, eager, acute, keen" (切) ('''kiri''').

After that, the "same events as before the shooting" were repeated. While alone with his thoughts, Shinpei witnesses the murder of the island's resident, Totsumura, by Mio, who stabbed him to death with a kitchen knife. He also sees the "shadow" of Dekomura being generated from the murdered Totsumura. Shinpei is shocked by what happens in front of his eyes, but then he sees Mio holding a kitchen knife. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] dreams of the incident where [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] died and witness how [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] attempts to provide first aid and bring Ushio to life. Shinpei then awakens at the boat heading Hitogashima and bumps into the same woman as before and gets slapped again. She wonders if he is okay, as it looked like he had a bad dream. Shinpei recalls its the woman from the forest and asks her if she was ever shot by a handgun, making her wonder even more if he is okay. Shinpei looks at his phone and sees its July 22nd, but recall going to Hiruko on 23rd with Mio. Shinpei then thinks of the novel "Swampman", a mystery-horror story taking place in Wakayama City, where a young girl believes her family and friends are replaced by copies. He assumes he had this nightmare because he felt asleep while reading the novel. Stepping on the island, Shinpei feels he had already experienced this moment. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] then arrives greeting him and falls in the water in the same way, with Shinpei noticing the bike brake wire is cut. Shinpei then heads to Ushio's funeral where he experience the same day as before. As he gets flashes of what is going to happen, he starts to believe that "shadows" do exist. After cooking curry, Shinpei decides to go out to take some fresh air while thinking of the cut break and if someone actually tried to kill Mio. He then overhears the police officer [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Shinpei finds it strange, as Mio should be inside and was no longer in her school uniform. Mio then kills Tetsu, stabbing him multiple times with a kitchen knife, making him realize that isn't Mio, but a Shadow. A flash then occurs and a Shadow comes out of Shadow Mio's shadow, which then transforms into Tetsu. The Shadow Tetsu then touches the dead Tetsu, causing another flash and disentigrading his body. Shadow Mio informs Shadow Tetsu that he is not Tetsu Totsumura, the police officer. Assuming his role, Mio then asks him to give her his gun, causing Tetsu to realize she still haven't killed the real Mio and taken her place. Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital. Taking the gun, Shadow Mio comments that she can't go in and kill her now or everyone will hear the gunshot and will be just scouting for today. In that moment, Sou who promised to call Shinpei earlier at the funeral, calls Shinpei. As his phone vibrates, Mio hears it, find Shinpei and stabs him in the neck. As he bleed out, Tetsu wonders if Mio will copy him, but starts to explain that Shinpei is already something, but he isn't able to hear the rest. Shinpei then starts floating above his body. He is then being transported elsewhere, but as he travels, he hears Ushio's voice, who tells him to be careful and protect Mio. Shinpei then awakens on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. Knowing that Mio will fall into the water, he stands in front of the bike, stopping her, but getting himself knocked into the water and Mio jumps to save him as he can't swim. Elsewhere, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]], the woman with the glasses, records herself while hanging upside down from a tree. She explains how much time its been since she arrived on Hitogashima and what she ate. Hizuru also explains that while hanging upside down, more blood enters her head and she is able to think better. She observes Shiori, commenting its right among the people and that she will keep watch for the moment. That evening, Shinpei calls Tetsu, informing him of a fight and sending him elsewhere, so that he doesn't encounter Shadow Mio. Shinpei then thinks on what to do. He deleted all unneeded apps on his phone to gain more free space and sets his phone recording outside of the house, in order to film Shadow Mio. Shinpei notices his right eye has a different color, but isn't aware when it happened. Worried about Mio, he ends up peeking in the bathroom, but ends up hit with the shower head in the face for peeking. In the morning, Shinpei retrieves his phone. He then heads to Mio's room and shows her the recording, explaining that a Shadow appeared and observed Mio last night and is there to kill Mio. Shinpei states that Ushio also saw her shadow, three days before the incident. Mio confirms, thinking that Ushio had told him this. Mio then guesses that Ushio was killed by a Shadow. ==Characters== *[[Mio Kofune]] *Shiori Kobayakawa *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Hizuru Minakata‎]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] [[Category:Episodes]] 0402c8407be07c9437c287b78d83516d8ab0945e 0 268 600 514 2022-05-21T17:32:31Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Jamais Vu | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 4 | image = Episode 04 Title.png | writer =Hiroshi Seko | director =Ryūta Yamamoto | previousEpisode = [[Episode 3]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 5]] |airDate=May 6, 2022|storyboard=Ryōta Aikei|adaptation=[[Chapter 11]]<br>[[Chapter 12]]<br>[[Chapter 13]]<br>[[Chapter 14]]<br>[[Chapter 15]]<br>[[Chapter 16]] (p. 1-4)}}'''Jamais Vu''' (未視感(ジャメヴ), ''Jame Vu'') is the 4th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== On the night of the summer festival, a "shadow" of Ushio appears in front of Shinpei. Unlike the other "shadows," she acts as if she were Ushio himself before her death. Shinpei is confused, but he cannot hide his joy at the thought of talking with Ushio, whom he will never see again. Shinpei hides Ushio so that Mio and Sou, who are wary of the "shadow," do not find her, but Ushio is not happy because she wants to see her sister. Later, Mio, the "shadow," reappears in front of Shinpei, who goes to Hiruko to join Sou. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] sees [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] on the beach, who then runs at him and hugs him, while being surprised he came back. Shinpei states she is dead and believe she must be a shadow, but Ushio state she is alive. Shinpei wonder what she is doing there and if she remembers what happened. Thinking about it, Ushio can't remember anything outside of feeling pain. She then recalls being underwater and realizes she indeed died and wonders if she is a ghost now. She explains before she died, she had one wish and thats it to see Shinpei one more time. The way she talks and behave, make Shinpei think that she indeed returned from the dead. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. Shinpei tries to remain calm and not be fooled. He asks her why she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. Shinpei realizes that Ushio doesn't think she is a shadow and goes after her at the festival. As she is still in her swimsuit and people stare at her, he takes her and runs away. He tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. As she hit him before warning him, Shinpei feels that's exactly what the real Ushio would have done. The two then talk for a bit and Ushio has all the memories of when they were young, but doesn't know anything about shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her. That shocks Mio, but Shinpei quickly explains its him and Mio is imagining it. Mio then tells him that the fireworks are over and they are at the shrine. Shinpei tells her he will come and tells Ushio to stay hidden until he comes back. He reminds her that she told him to protect Mio, but Ushio has no such memory. Shinpei joins Mio and the rest and they watch the ceremony of "omiokuri". On Hitogashima, they believe that anything that washes ashore, god dwells in it, the deity Hiruko no Mikoto, the god of fishing. They collect all wreckage and burn it during the summer festival, sending the god off. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] wants to talk with Mio in private. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] tells Shinpei that Sou intends to confess to Mio, but thinks won't work out as Mio already loves someone else. Shinpei wonders who, but Tokiko refuses to tell him. Sou then asks Tokiko and Shinpei to listen and tells Mio that he loves her and wants to protect her. However, Mio states she likes him, but wishes they to remain friends. A disguised Ushio then appears and tries to cheer up Sou. As her disguise is poor, everyone quickly recognizes her. She attempts to deny it, but as its too late, she states she wanted to see them. However, Mio states its not Ushio, but a monster and warns Shinpei to stay away from her as she is a shadow. Shinpei refuses, and grabs Ushio, causing her pain. He then looks at Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. As a shadow comes out of Sinpei, everyone realizes that Shinpei is a shadow too. About ten minutes earlier, while running towards the shrine, Shinpei encounters shadow Mio who had just killed someone. Shadow Mio then grabs and throws Shinpei, stating that she heard he recorded her, but that wouldn't be possible, unless he knew she was coming. Shinpei notices many black strains, realizes Mio had just killed many people. Mio asks if the traitor told him, but as the plan is almost complete, she can't let any interference. A shadow Shinpei then appears and wonders how many times has Shinpei died, and creates a flash. Shinpei realizes that the flash at Shiori's house made a copy of him and all of his memories until then, but this new flash will now update and learn everything. Mio then tries to kill Shinpei, but shadow Shinpei stops her, stating they need to think a bit more and if they kill him, he can just loop again. Shadow Shinpei states that Shinpei can't control it on will, but if he keeps returning to 22nd, he will one day become a hindrance. Shadow Shinpei tells Mio to take his phone and to send others to get Ushio. He then proceeds towards the shrine. Shinpei wishes to stop him, but Mio breaks his arm, stating he is struggling pointlessly as Mother will soon wake up. As Shinpei keeps struggling, Mio wonders if she should break his leg too, but in that moment, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] appears and shoots her in the head. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] [[Category:Episodes]] db3be273f5ef2cfea3f722520473645b0bb8d330 0 302 601 543 2022-05-21T17:32:36Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Maelstrom | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 5 | image = Episode 05 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Shinji Matsuda | previousEpisode = [[Episode 4]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 6]] |airDate = May 13, 2022 |storyboard = Ayumu Watanabe |adaptation=[[Chapter 16]]<br>[[Chapter 17]]<br>[[Chapter 18]]<br>[[Chapter 19]]<br>[[Chapter 20]]}}'''Maelstrom''' (渦, ''Uzu'') is the 5th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei is saved by a woman who was a passenger on the ferry. She identified herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, a writer whom Shinpei admired, and said that she had come to rescue "Shinpei Ajiro". She also possessed a great deal of knowledge about "shadows". Meanwhile, a massacre by "shadows" was taking place at a summer festival. Shinpei goes to help, but his friends are killed one after another. Soon, the "shadow" swallows up everyone on the island. ==Summary== [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] shoots the shadow Mio in the head. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] recognizes her as the woman from the boat, but then notices that Mio is gone. Mio had turned into a shadow on the ground and slides behind Hizuru. She then comes out of the shadow an attempts to stab Hizuru, however, Hizuru dodges and points the gun at Mio's shadow on the ground and shoots it. Mio is surprised she managed to dodge that and due to the gunshot, she falls apart and disappears. Hizuru explains that she haven't been on the island since she was a kid, and introduces her as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and had come to save Shinpei. Shinpei recognizes the name, but before he can say anything, Hizuru pulls him to the side, stating that a Shadow is coming. They see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] coming and running up the stairs. Shinpei wants to go up, but Hizuru stops him, saying that that's where the Shadows are gathering. Shinpei wonders if she can tell humans from Shadows and Hizuru explains that above the shadow is just a lump of flesh in human shape. He needs to look at their feet, where their true form is the flat shadow cast upon the ground. They hate when someone steps on them and only a Shadow will move to avoid being stepped on. According to Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. Hizuru notes that the shadows number had increased drastically in the last three days, no matter how many she kills and feels they may have a goal. A flash occurs on top of the hill and Shinpei requests Hizuru's help as he wants to save Mio. He runs up the stairs and finds [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]], who starts crying and is then killed by a shadow. The shadow states the hour of nine is approaching and the festival is over, revealing a big pile of dead humans behind it. Shinpei freezes for a moment, but subconsciously starts counting the shadows. He sees shadow [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] who had hit Sou in the head with an axe as he was protecting [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Shadow Sou then proceeds to attack Mio, but Hizuru blows his hands with the shotgun. The main shadow then creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru. Hizuru then sees the gun shooting and she dying and quickly dodges, but gets shot in the arm and guesses that shadow is the parent. The shadow then grabs Shinpei, looking at its right eye and he realizes it must by the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he have it, but states he can control time with it. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. The parent shadow states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei struggles to get to Mio, but before he is able to reach her, she gets consumed, along with the rest of the dead bodies. The parent shadow offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. The parent shadow starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. At Hishigata Hospital, [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] is with a shadow in a wheelchair. Looking at the red light, he comments that she had recovered after consuming thousand humans. Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, saying she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not over and asks her to shoot him in the head, saying that no matter how many times he dies, he will start over. The parent shadow prepares to consume him as well, but Ushio comes and punches him. Hizuru tells Shinpei that if he really can go back, to find her and say his name. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei in the head. Shinpei then finds himself floating in air. He sees the island is engulfed in shadow and a red girl, who then notices him as well. Shinpei then clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. Shinpei returns to July 22nd, after he came to the island and met Mio. Later, Shinpei starts thinking about the situation and what Ushio told him. He realizes that each time, his starting points moves ahead. He realizes he can't keep failing as eventually will reach a point where Mio and the rest will start dying and he will never be able to save them. Meanwhile, Ushio awakens at the beach. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Shiori Kobayakawa]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Heine]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] [[Category:Episodes]] a49193664b67a2c0040ef4a99ea7c9b02a0491c9 6 328 604 2022-05-21T17:34:45Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 329 605 2022-05-21T17:34:52Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 330 606 2022-05-21T17:34:59Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 331 607 2022-05-21T17:35:06Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 332 608 2022-05-21T17:35:12Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 333 609 2022-05-21T17:35:19Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 334 610 2022-05-21T17:35:25Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 0 252 611 599 2022-05-21T17:56:32Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Shadow | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 2 | image = Episode 02 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Jun'ichi Yamamoto | previousEpisode = [[Episode 1]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 3]] |airDate=April 22, 2022|storyboard=Jun'ichi Yamamoto|adaptation=[[Chapter 2]]<br> [[Chapter 3]]<br> [[Chapter 4]]<br> [[Chapter 5]]<br> [[Chapter 6]]<br> [[Chapter 7]] (p. 1-3)}}'''Shadow''' (影, ''Kage'') is the 2nd episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei was supposed to have been shot in the head by Mio's "shadow," but when he regained consciousness, he was on a ferry heading to Hitogashima.

Assuming his role, Mio then asks him to give her his gun, causing Tetsu to realize she still haven't killed the real Mio and taken her place. Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital. Taking the gun, Shadow Mio comments that she can't go in and kill her now or everyone will hear the gunshot and will be just scouting for today. In that moment, Sou who promised to call Shinpei earlier at the funeral, calls Shinpei. As his phone vibrates, Mio hears it, find Shinpei and stabs him in the neck.

She explains how much time its been since she arrived on Hitogashima and what she ate. Hizuru also explains that while hanging upside down, more blood enters her head and she is able to think better. She observes Shiori, commenting its right among the people and that she will keep watch for the moment. That evening, Shinpei calls Tetsu, informing him of a fight and sending him elsewhere, so that he doesn't encounter Shadow Mio. Shinpei then thinks on what to do. He deleted all unneeded apps on his phone to gain more free space and sets his phone recording outside of the house, in order to film Shadow Mio. Shinpei notices his right eye has a different color, but isn't aware when it happened. Worried about Mio, he ends up peeking in the bathroom, but ends up hit with the shower head in the face for peeking. In the morning, Shinpei retrieves his phone.

Unlike the other "shadows," she acts as if she were Ushio himself before her death. Shinpei is confused, but he cannot hide his joy at the thought of talking with Ushio, whom he will never see again. Shinpei hides Ushio so that Mio and Sou, who are wary of the "shadow," do not find her, but Ushio is not happy because she wants to see her sister. Later, Mio, the "shadow," reappears in front of Shinpei, who goes to Hiruko to join Sou. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] sees [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] on the beach, who then runs at him and hugs him, while being surprised he came back. Shinpei states she is dead and believe she must be a shadow, but Ushio state she is alive. Shinpei wonder what she is doing there and if she remembers what happened. Thinking about it, Ushio can't remember anything outside of feeling pain. She then recalls being underwater and realizes she indeed died and wonders if she is a ghost now. She explains before she died, she had one wish and thats it to see Shinpei one more time. The way she talks and behave, make Shinpei think that she indeed returned from the dead. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. Shinpei tries to remain calm and not be fooled. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. Shinpei realizes that Ushio doesn't think she is a shadow and goes after her at the festival. As she is still in her swimsuit and people stare at her, he takes her and runs away. He tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. As she hit him before warning him, Shinpei feels that's exactly what the real Ushio would have done. The two then talk for a bit and Ushio has all the memories of when they were young, but doesn't know anything about shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her. That shocks Mio, but Shinpei quickly explains its him and Mio is imagining it.

He reminds her that she told him to protect Mio, but Ushio has no such memory. Shinpei joins Mio and the rest and they watch the ceremony of "omiokuri". On Hitogashima, they believe that anything that washes ashore, god dwells in it, the deity Hiruko no Mikoto, the god of fishing. They collect all wreckage and burn it during the summer festival, sending the god off. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] wants to talk with Mio in private. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] tells Shinpei that Sou intends to confess to Mio, but thinks won't work out as Mio already loves someone else. Shinpei wonders who, but Tokiko refuses to tell him. Sou then asks Tokiko and Shinpei to listen and tells Mio that he loves her and wants to protect her. However, Mio states she likes him, but wishes they to remain friends. A disguised Ushio then appears and tries to cheer up Sou. As her disguise is poor, everyone quickly recognizes her. She attempts to deny it, but as its too late, she states she wanted to see them. However, Mio states its not Ushio, but a monster and warns Shinpei to stay away from her as she is a shadow. Shinpei refuses, and grabs Ushio, causing her pain. He then looks at Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. As a shadow comes out of Sinpei, everyone realizes that Shinpei is a shadow too. About ten minutes earlier, while running towards the shrine, Shinpei encounters shadow Mio who had just killed someone. Shadow Mio then grabs and throws Shinpei, stating that she heard he recorded her, but that wouldn't be possible, unless he knew she was coming. Shinpei notices many black strains, realizes Mio had just killed many people. Mio asks if the traitor told him, but as the plan is almost complete, she can't let any interference. A shadow Shinpei then appears and wonders how many times has Shinpei died, and creates a flash. Shinpei realizes that the flash at Shiori's house made a copy of him and all of his memories until then, but this new flash will now update and learn everything. Mio then tries to kill Shinpei, but shadow Shinpei stops her, stating they need to think a bit more and if they kill him, he can just loop again.

However, Ushio, who was not "supposed to be there" yet, appears. Ushio, like Shinpei, had looped back from the summer festival on the 24th. Surprised by the sudden turn of events, Shinpei tries to sort out the situation, but is suddenly and unexpectedly attacked by Mio's "shadow". Shinpei avoids being killed with the help of Ushio, but Ushio's arm is cut open instead. ==Summary== [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears behind [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and is happy to see he is making his curry. Shinpei is surprised and comments that she should have appeared on 24th at the festival. Ushio wonders how he knows that and explains that some shadow-like monsters would appear at the festival and eat everyone. Shinpei realizes that she had already been at the festival, which makes Ushio wonder if he too was already there. As [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] comes in, Shinpei hides Ushio under the counter, her stomach rumbles and Mio comments it sounds like his sisters, but is glad as if he is hungry, it means he is okay. Shinpei proceeds with cooking. Once [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] comes, he gives a note to Ushio, telling her that in five minutes, Alain will go to the washroom and then Mio will go to the rest room. While they are gone, Ushio should go to Shinpei's room. Once he done everything as before and the cooking is done, Shinpei states he is quite hungry and takes two plates and heads into his room. Once inside his room, Shinpei sees Ushio, who is eagerly waiting for the curry. Shinpei wonders why Shadow Ushio managed to loop with him and asks her from where she came. Ushio explains she walked from Omoto Beach, where she woke up. Recalling Mio calling her a "monster", Ushio states she stayed out of sight and no one saw her. Shinpei touches Ushio's shadow, who gets startled and states that tickled. Shinpei is ready to kill her, seeing she is totally off-guard, but recalls she did help him. Shinpei recalls when he told Ushio that he will be going to Tokyo and entering a culinary school. He told her that he can't keep being a burden to Kofune family, but in reality, he loves Ushio and can't keep being her step-brother. On his last day on the island, Ushio requested he to make her curry, but Shinpei was busy with packing his stuff and told her next time. Shadow Ushio tells Shinpei that she is glad to be able to again eat his curry, which causes Shinpei to decide to not kill her. Ushio tells him that she wants to stop the monsters and both agree to work together to prevent the events at the festival. Shinpei wonders if Ushio can copy people, but Ushio isn't able to. In ten minutes, Shadow Mio is to appear. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] who turned into her brother Ryunosuke, asks [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] if he is in position and he confirms. He also tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei said as prey tends to be unpredictable. Ryunosuke sends a message to Shinpei, asking if there are any changes. Shinpei then wonders if he should tell about Ushio, but ends up not responding. He asks Ushio if she ain't going to change clothes. Ushio then realizes its indeed weird to stay in a swimsuit, but in that moment, her swimsuit starts to disappear. As she ends up naked, she punches Shinpei for seeing her and asks him to give her some clothes. He gives her a shirt and explains that Mio's shadow is coming. He points out there is no point in locking up, as the shadows can withdraw into their shadows an enter from the smallest cracks, which makes Ushio attempt to do it, but fails. Shinpei also explains that Mio's shadow haven't entered the house before, so there is nothing to worry. Meanwhile, a shadow entered the house. Mio comes to Shinpei's room and Ushio hides under the blanket. Mio is there to take the dishes, but is surprised that Shinpei used two spoons and glasses, but guesses its because Ushio came, explaining that at Hitogashima the souls of the dead return to their homes and become protective deities. Mio leaves, but returns in few seconds, which scares Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, he notices that she is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio then attempts to stab him, but Ushio protects him and takes the hit. Ushio then pushes Mio back, but she enters her shadow and comes out and stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Shinpei realizes he can't win and opens the curtains and challenges Mio. Mio then looks at Ushio and asks her why she protect him, as he, Hizuru and Ginjiro had killed a shadow. Ushio states she loves Shinpei and there is nothing wrong in siding with the one you love. Mio starts yelling that Ushio died and turns towards Shinpei to kill him. In that moment, Ginjiro blows her head through the window. Shinpei drops on his knees and stabs Mio's shadow. As Shadow Mio dies, she wonders why as she too loves him. Ryunosuke enters Shinpei's room and as he is about to smash Ushio's head, Shinpei protects her with his body, stopping Ryunosuke. Shinpei states he knows that Ryunosuke hates Shadows and their goal is to eliminate them all, but Ushio had saved him twice, shielding him with her own body. Shinpei begs Hizuru to save Ushio and threat her wound. Ryunosuke turns to Hizuru and states that if he sides with the shadow, she will kill him too. Shinpei doesn't care and states he will loop again and convince her next time. Ushio asks if the real Mio is okay. Hizuru confirms and states she is in the bathroom. Hizuru then realizes Ushio's voice is the same as the message she received that led her to the island and decides to help her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Ushio panics, but then states it doesn't hurt. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru explains that she was regular at the Kofune restaurant before, but Ushio doesn't remember her. Hizuru then plays her the message, in which Ushio states that the Shadows kill everyone at the festival, requesting Hizuru's help and that the only one who can stop them is Shinpei Ajiro. However, Ushio has no memories of it too. Ginjiro wonders why Mio shadow acted differently this time and entered the house. Shinpei states she knew they killed Shiori. Hizuru guesses that Mio acknowledged them as threat and moved to eliminate them. In the other loops, they were after Hizuru and Ginjiro, but in this loop, they know that Shinpei is with them. Shinpei wonders how they know that, since they killed all the shadows at Kobayakawas. Hizuru tells him that they can't continue to work together if he intends to stick with Ushio's shadow. She agrees that Ushio at the moment has no ill intention and is probably faulty, but at some point she may get "fixed". As they leave, Shinpei tells Hizuru that on 23rd, just past 3PM, she got killed by Mio's shadow in the forest around the shrine. While Mio is now defeated, a replacement may still come. In the morning of 23rd, Ushio is hungry and Shinpei goes to take some food. He visits Mio, who spend the night talking to Tokiko, and tells her that he is awaken, so she doesn't need to go to his room. Mio then gives him the shell necklace, which Shinpei then shows to Ushio, but she doesn't remember anything additional. Shinpei proceeds doing what he did on 23rd and goes to work at the restaurant. He receives Ushio's phone from [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] and [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] comes to the restaurant. Knowing that it will later rain, Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they go out. Sou states he needs to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio appears behind him and comments its the strangle marks, meaning she was likely killed. Sou confirms, but then realizes its Ushio and is shocked. Shinpei and Ushio then tell him everything. At the end Sou apologizes for not doing enough to save Ushio and states she can punch him. In that moment, Ushio kicks him, wondering if he is happy now and to stand up as they are relying on him. They are at the private beach where Ushio died, but Shadow Ushio has no memories. Shinpei gives her phone, stating he wanted to look through it, but it was locked. Ushio realizes the password had changed, but unlocks it with her fingerprint. As she looks at it, she sees there is a video from 20th in the morning, the day she died. ==Characters== *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] [[Category:Episodes]] c4356ac52daedc0b47690198e157ee2a6a7f41aa 659 650 2022-06-06T21:56:52Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Memento | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 8 | image = Episode 08 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Yūri Hagiwara | previousEpisode = [[Episode 7]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 9]] |airDate = June 3, 2022 |storyboard = Akinori Fudesaka |adaptation = [[Chapter 32]]<br>[[Chapter 33]] (p. 1-9, 11-15)<br>[[Chapter 34]] (p. 9-10, 12-15)<br>[[Chapter 35]]<br>[[Chapter 36]]<br>[[Chapter 37]]<br>[[Chapter 38]] (p. 2-10, 12-13)<br>[[Chapter 39]] (p. 4-17)<br>[[Chapter 40]] (p. 1-12, 14-17) }}'''Memento''' (メメント, ''Memento'') is the 8th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei returns to the Kobune family as Hizuru and Ginjiro watch over him to defeat Mio's "shadow" that appeared in the first night.

She once had an experience that gave her reason to believe Shinpei's story. Although Hizuru refrains from saying much so as not to risk being revealed to the "shadows," she says that she will help Shinpei. Shinpei, Hizuru, and Ginjiro head to the Kobayakawa family to defeat the "shadows" of the Kobayakawa family. The three succeed in capturing Shiori's "shadow," but... ==Summary== [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] guesses that [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] is a time traveller and he confirms. She then believes it wasn't her who made the reveal, and wonders if Shinpei met her brother. Shinpei reveals everything he knows, making Hizuru note that she can make this the plot of her next novel. Shinpei guesses she believed him due to the novel Swampman, as the Swampman appears just like the Shadows. Hizuru explains that she met a shadow fourteen years ago and it killed her family. However, she can't tell him more as if the Shadows copy Shinpei, they will learn her secret. [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] says that shadows target families and they will target Hizuru again. Shinpei realizes why he, Ushio and Mio are targeted and wonders about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro explains that once your shadow is killed, they can't copy you anymore. Ginjiro himself have this immunity and they can never copy him again. Hizuru tells Shinpei that she will help him and wonders about his plan. Shinpei explains they time limit is 54 hours, but first wants to help Mio and take out her shadow. Hizuru agrees, but states there is one problem first and Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, however, he saw Shiori's shadow at the festival, which means Hizuru would fail to eliminate her and wish to come with her. In front of Kobe Mart, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and listens to Shinpei's and Hizuru's earlier conversation. Ginjiro explains that because Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Ryunosuke rings at the doorbell and Asako opens, Ryunosuke explains he brings souvenirs and Shiori secretly tells Asako to let her in. Asako then introduces her family, her husband Tatsuo and daughter Shiori. As Ryunosuke enters, he opens his luggage and takes out a hammer and immediately smashes Asako's head. He notes that if he went right away for their shadows, the other two will know he knows how to kill them and keep their distance, so he must take out the three of them at the same time. Shinpei wonders if Hizuru has dual personality, but Ginjiro states he is close, but not quite. Tatsuo then attacks Ryunosuke, but he smashes his head too. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that if he goes in, the reason why Shiori escapes may change and Hizuru is right now trying to learn why she managed to escape. Ryunosuke gets a glimpse of his death and then avoids Asako's attack, and proceeds smashing her shadow and killing her. Shinpei wants to know more about Ryunosuke and Ginjiro explains he was Hizuru's twin brother, but she found him dead fourteen years ago. He had bite marks all over his body, making people think it was wild dogs, but the bites were distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed Hizuru that this was murder and they cremated Ryunosuke's body. Meanwhile, Hizuru smashes Shiori's shadow. Shiori takes damage, but manages to separate part of her shadow surrounding the hammer and survives with injuries. Shiori then grabs Ryunosuke by the neck, strangling him and commenting that he knows how to kill shadow and is dangerous. Shiori comments that Ryunosuke moves faster than the shadows and wonders if he is even human. Ryunosuke tells her to copy him and ask herself. Ryunosuke manages to grab some chopsticks and as Shiori's shadow is on him, he stabs himself to hit the shadow. Shiori escapes on the third floor. Ryunosuke texts Ginjiro, informing them that Asako and Tatsuo are dead, but Shiori went on the third floor and Shinpei may be correct. They proceed with Plan B and Ginjiro takes out some nail guns for him and Shinpei. On the third floor, Ryunosuke enters Shiori's room and texts Ginjiro that she managed to escape from the window. He feels her presence behind him and tells her its pointless as if she copies him, she won't be able to move for a few seconds. Realizing she can't copy Hizuru, Shiori retreats into her shadow and escapes from the window. Ginjiro then starts shooting her with his nail gun. He hits her two times, but Shiori manages to escape past him. As she is about to escape, Shinpei comes out and charges at Shiori and takes her to the ground. Shiori bites him, but Ginjiro shoots three nails at her shadow and tells Shinpei its safe to let her go as she won't be able to escape now, since piercing a shadow three times, it stops them from moving. Ryunosuke learns something new, that when they are pinned they can't withdraw from their 3D body. Shiori laughs and Ryunosuke explains that she is different than the other shadows, that's why they went with Plan B. Ryunosuke asks Shiori if she was the one that killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks her why Ushio, and what's they goal. Shiori states the end is coming this summer and she is gathering her family and leaving. She states that while a shadow copied her, she copied all of Shiori's mind and memories, so she is the real Shiori right now. Shen then asks Shinpei to become a shadow like her and be her big brother. As she laughs, Shinpei barely holds his fist. Ryunosuke smashes Shiori and kills her, stating that if you talk with a shadow for too long, you can only get misled. Shinpei wonders what's the difference between the copy and the original, and recalls that's the theme of Swampman and wonders what Ryunosuke thinks about it. Ginjiro reveals he told Shinpei about Ryunosuke. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Ryunosuke Minamikata, Hizuru's brother. He explains that Hizuru wrote the novels, but he comes to surface when she is forced to deal with things she dislikes, like interviews or meetings. he guesses that Shinpei had read some of her novels and Ginjiro reveals he is actually quite a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as this wasn't mentioned by Hizuru in her notes, guessing she is bashful, but in that moment, he raises his fist and punches himself. Hizuru then takes over, stating that she isn't bashful and isn't hiding anything, but decided to cut in as they were going off topic. She tells him that he must not falter in front of the shadows and to save his philosophy talk for after everything is finished. She wonders if he can really kill Mio's shadow. They head towards Kofune's house and exchange phone numbers. Hizuru tells Shinpei to act as he would normally do and observe until the shadow shows up. Entering the Kofune house, Shinpei sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] with a bloody knife. He is shocked, but then sees she is cutting onions and she gets teary eyes, she ended up cutting herself. Shinpei finds it strange as she never had cooked before, but Mio explains that he seemed down and she decided to do something to cheer him up. Shinpei takes the knife and steps on her shadow to confirm she is human and decides to proceed making curry himself. Mio goes to wash her face, moments later Shinpei hears a stomach grow and wonders if Mio is that hungry, but as he turns, he sees [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]], who confirms she is hungry. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Shiori Kobayakawa]] *Asako Isokane/Asako Kobayakawa *Tatsuo Kobayakawa *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] [[Category:Episodes]] b6c2c39f7413e09ae819589fe0931a912b9f2460 6 340 628 2022-05-27T03:27:35Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 341 629 2022-05-27T03:27:42Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 342 630 2022-05-27T03:27:50Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 6 343 631 2022-05-27T03:27:56Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 0 344 632 2022-05-27T03:30:32Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 Created page with "{{Chapter box |title = Chapter 31 |image = Chapter 031.png |volume = [[Volume 3|3]] |chapter = 31 |jname = |rname = |page = 21 |date = |Previous = [[Chapter 30]] |Next = [[Chapter 32]] }}'''Chapter 31''' is the 31st chapter of the [[Summer Time Rendering (manga)|Summer Time Rendering]] manga series. ==Summary== ==Characters In Order of Appearance== ==Site Navigation== {{Chapter navi}} [[Category:Chapters]]" wikitext text/x-wiki {{Chapter box |title = Chapter 31 |image = Chapter 031.png |volume = [[Volume 3|3]] |chapter = 31 |jname = |rname = |page = 21 |date = |Previous = [[Chapter 30]] |Next = [[Chapter 32]] }}'''Chapter 31''' is the 31st chapter of the [[Summer Time Rendering (manga)|Summer Time Rendering]] manga series. ==Summary== ==Characters In Order of Appearance== ==Site Navigation== {{Chapter navi}} [[Category:Chapters]] dd90939713ddd359225533680496d7891ae7fe20 10 201 633 579 2022-05-27T03:30:58Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" align="center" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" width="100%" style="border:1px #ffffff solid; clear:both; font-size:90%; width: 90%; border-radius:1px 8px 0 0;padding:1px;" |align=center bgcolor=#FFCC66 width=15% style="color:#ffffff;"|'''[[Template:Chapter navi|<font color="#FFFFFF">v</font>]]<font color="#FFFFFF"> &middot; [{{fullurl:Template:Chapter navi}}?action=edit <font color="#FFFFFF">e]</font></font>''' !colspan="2" style="background:#FFCC66;"|<center><span style="color:white">[[Summer Time Rendering (manga)|<span style="color:white">Summer Time Rendering Chapters</span>]]</span></center> |- !width=15% |<span style="color: white">[[Volume 1]]</span> | font-size=12% |[[Chapter 1|1]] • [[Chapter 2|2]] • [[Chapter 3|3]] • [[Chapter 4|4]] • [[Chapter 5|5]] • [[Chapter 6|6]] • [[Chapter 7|7]] • [[Chapter 8|8]] • [[Chapter 9|9]] |- !width=15% |<span style="color: white">[[Volume 2]]</span> | font-size=12% |[[Chapter 10|10]] • [[Chapter 11|11]] • [[Chapter 12|12]] • [[Chapter 13|13]] • [[Chapter 14|14]] • [[Chapter 15|15]] • [[Chapter 16|16]] • [[Chapter 17|17]] • [[Chapter 18|18]] • [[Chapter 19|19]] • [[Chapter 20|20]] |- !width=15% |<span style="color: white">[[Volume 3]]</span> | font-size=12% |[[Chapter 21|21]] • [[Chapter 22|22]] • [[Chapter 23|23]] • [[Chapter 24|24]] • [[Chapter 25|25]] • [[Chapter 26|26]] • [[Chapter 27|27]] • [[Chapter 28|28]] • [[Chapter 29|29]] • [[Chapter 30|30]] • [[Chapter 31|31]] <!--|- !width=15% bgcolor=#d1e7ef|<span style="color: white">TBA</span> | font-size=12% bgcolor= #ffe796|[[Chapter 72|72]] • '''Ongoing'''--> |}<noinclude>[[Category:Templates]]</noinclude> b5dd09d6b5d03a714312146a17bc373bb70750b4 0 171 634 582 2022-05-27T03:32:05Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Manga |title1=Summer Time Rendering |title=Summer Time Rendering, サマータイムレンダ |image= Volume 1.jpg |author=Yasuki Tanaka |original run= |published=Shonen Jump+ |volumes= |genre=Mystery, Shounen, Supernatural, Romance,Drama}}'''Summer Time Rendering''' (サマータイムレンダ, ''Summer Time Render'') is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Yasuki Tanaka. ==Plot== Hearing the news of the passing of his childhood friend Ushio, Shinpei returned to his hometown on the remote island of Hitogashima to attend her funeral.

The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. <!--- second cycle ---> The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. <!--- third cycle ---> On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun.

Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. <!--- fourth cycle ---> On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun.

Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her brother '''Ryunosuke Minakata''' takes over when she is forced to do things she dislikes. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. <!--- second cycle ---> The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. <!--- third cycle ---> On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. <!--- fourth cycle ---> On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it.

About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kobune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. <!--- fourth cycle ---> Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kobune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. XD LOSER Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill.

Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. <!--- fourth cycle ---> Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms.

He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes.

On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner.

On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. <!--- fourth cycle ---> Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot.

As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio.

The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio.

(anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== The video left on the cell phone which Ushio left, they see Ushio and her Shadow together. The two Ushio's begin to talk about the events from the time they met to the time they left the video. Ushio is perplexed by Shadow Ushio, who does not doubt that she is the "real" Ushio, but they soon begin to cooperate in their search for the truth behind the "shadows". Ushio's "shadow" regains all her memories and powers after seeing the video, and tries to make Shinpei and his friends relive the time of Ushio's death. ==Summary== Watching the video, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and the rest see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] who states she has a message for Shinpei and guesses that if he or anyone else is watching it, it would mean she is dead. She then calls her Shadow and the two Ushio stand to each other. Ushio explains that her Shadow isn't an evil one and its likely that she is right now standing next to Shinpei as only the two Ushio can unlock the phone. Ushio states Shinpei can get the details from her Shadow, but she wished to leave him a direct message from her. Ushio then states that everything started with [[Shiori Kobayakawa|Shiori]]. On July 17th, at Kobe Mart, Ushio and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] are shopping and Shiori tells them that she was followed by a look-alike. However, they don't take her seriously, guessing its just some creep and she needs to report it to [[Tetsu Totsumura]]. The next day on July 18th, while cleaning the beach, Ushio sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow and points it to Mio. Shadow Ushio then runs and Ushio goes after her, but looses her and only finds her hat, which then disappears. She recalls what Shiori said and returns to the beach to talk with her and states she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. As they finish watching the video, Shinpei realizes that the two Ushio tried to save Shiori. Shadow Ushio tells him that she now remembers everything, including her powers. She then offers them to replay the past from her memory data and show them what happened on the private beach on July 21st. Shadow Ushio then shows them the beach on 21st. She takes them to where she and Ushio where and there Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. Shiori was mocked by Hamaji for being unable to swim and she asks Mio how to become a great swimmer, and Mio decides to teach her. Ushio then comes and states that she will protect Shiori, but Shiori wonders what she means. A young girl, Akari, had pooped in her swimsuit and Hamaji tells Mio, who decides to take Akari and go clean her. While they were looking away, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. Shadow Ushio apologizes for not being able to save Shiori, but promises that she will help Shinpei wipe out the Shadow. Sou is angry and states he wants to kill Shadow Shiori, but Shinpei tells him he already did. Shadow Shiori who is carried by Mio then grabs Shinpei's arm, stating she found him. Shinpei is surprised as this was a recording and they couldn't interact with others. Shadow Ushio tells him that this isn't part of her memory. Shadow Shiori then turns into [[Heine]], stating she was looking for him for quite some time and isn't letting him go. Shadow Ushio stops the replay and they return to the beach, but sees that Shinpei has a mark on his arm where Heine grabbed him. ==Characters== *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Shiori Kobayakawa]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *Asako Kobayakawa *Tetsuo Kobayakawa *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *Hamaji *Akari *[[Heine]] [[Category:Episodes]] 7685736e06449797332c979e3f078413368931df 0 219 684 626 2022-06-06T22:15:53Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Anime |title1 = Summer Time Rendering |image = <gallery> Summer Time Rendering Key Visual 1.png|Key Visual 1 Summer Time Rendering Key Visual 2.png|Key Visual 2 Summer Time Rendering Key Visual 3.png|Key Visual 3 </gallery> |title = Summer Time Rendering, サマータイムレンダ |work = OLM |original run = April 25, 2022 - ? |episodes = 25 |genre = Drama, Mystery, Supernatural }}'''Summer Time Rendering''' (サマータイムレンダ) is a Japanese anime series based on the [[Summer Time Rendering (manga)|Summer Time Rendering]] manga by Yasuki Tanaka.

She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. <!--- third cycle ---> On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. <!--- fourth cycle ---> On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kobune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. <!--- fourth cycle ---> Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

A bit later Asako approaches Shinpei and asks him what he means. Seeing they are shadows, Shinpei explains its something he heard from Mio's grandmother when they were kids.

(anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== The video left on the cell phone which Ushio left, they see Ushio and her Shadow together. The two Ushio's begin to talk about the events from the time they met to the time they left the video. Ushio is perplexed by Shadow Ushio, who does not doubt that she is the "real" Ushio, but they soon begin to cooperate in their search for the truth behind the "shadows". Ushio's "shadow" regains all her memories and powers after seeing the video, and tries to make Shinpei and his friends relive the time of Ushio's death. ==Summary== Watching the video, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and the rest see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] who states she has a message for Shinpei and guesses that if he or anyone else is watching it, it would mean she is dead. She then calls her Shadow and the two Ushio stand to each other. Ushio explains that her Shadow isn't an evil one and its likely that she is right now standing next to Shinpei as only the two Ushio can unlock the phone. Ushio states Shinpei can get the details from her Shadow, but she wished to leave him a direct message from her. Ushio then states that everything started with [[Shiori Kobayakawa|Shiori]]. On July 17th, at Kobe Mart, Ushio and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] are shopping and Shiori tells them that she was followed by a look-alike. However, they don't take her seriously, guessing its just some creep and she needs to report it to [[Tetsu Totsumura]]. The next day on July 18th, while cleaning the beach, Ushio sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow and points it to Mio. Shadow Ushio then runs and Ushio goes after her, but looses her and only finds her hat, which then disappears. She recalls what Shiori said and returns to the beach to talk with her and states she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. As they finish watching the video, Shinpei realizes that the two Ushio tried to save Shiori. Shadow Ushio tells him that she now remembers everything, including her powers. She then offers them to replay the past from her memory data and show them what happened on the private beach on July 21st. Shadow Ushio then shows them the beach on 21st. She takes them to where she and Ushio where and there Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. Shiori was mocked by Hamaji for being unable to swim and she asks Mio how to become a great swimmer, and Mio decides to teach her. Ushio then comes and states that she will protect Shiori, but Shiori wonders what she means. A young girl, Akari, had pooped in her swimsuit and Hamaji tells Mio, who decides to take Akari and go clean her. While they were looking away, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. Shadow Ushio apologizes for not being able to save Shiori, but promises that she will help Shinpei wipe out the Shadow. Sou is angry and states he wants to kill Shadow Shiori, but Shinpei tells him he already did. Shadow Shiori who is carried by Mio then grabs Shinpei's arm, stating she found him. Shinpei is surprised as this was a recording and they couldn't interact with others. Shadow Ushio tells him that this isn't part of her memory. Shadow Shiori then turns into [[Heine]], stating she was looking for him for quite some time and isn't letting him go. Shadow Ushio stops the replay and they return to the beach, but sees that Shinpei has a mark on his arm where Heine grabbed him. ==Characters== *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]]

He then recognize its the [[Heine|red floating girl]] from the festival. As it starts to rain, [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] is surprised that Shinpei was right. Shinpei wishes to go to the old clinic, but Sou wants they to go tomorrow as its raining and its getting dark. As Shinpei still wants to go, Sou agrees to come along. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. After preparing, Shinpei and Sou meet to head for the mountain. Shinpei shows him that Ushio turned into a shell necklace and is on his neck. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his [[Seido Hishigata|father]] caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. As they reach the clinic, Shinpei asks Ushio if she senses any shadows, but she denies and pops out. Sou tries to scold her for not being serious as she is in a swimsuit, but she states the same as he is in a baseball outfit. Shinpei explains that having clothes would get in the way of her transformations. Ushio adds that her real body is her flat shadow, so even if she wears an armor that won't protect her if her shadow get stabbed. They enter the old clinic and start looking around. Shinpei sees that the stairs for the second floor are broken and asks Ushio to check it. Sou finds a medicine cabinet and old toxic medicine, which is no longer used due to its deadly toxins. Sou then finds an old weird wood statue that is holding a fish in his left arm. That reminds him of something and they figure its like an Ebisu statue, one of the Seven Gods of Fortune, God of fishing. However, Ebisu is usually depicted as an old fat guy and not as leech-like female. Shinpei searched on internet and finds that Hiruko is the first god created from Izanagi and Izanami when Japan was created, however as it was a weak child, it was put on a boat and cast out to sea. Hiruko was described as a leech-like with no arms or legs, making some interpreted that Hiruko is heteromorphic. Shinpei then realizes the wood statue is Hiruko. On the second floor, Ushio finds a cook book and old picture book of Hishigata family. Shinpei calls Ushio and asks her to go trough a small gap in the wall. Ushio agrees after Shinpei promises her to buy her some food at the festival. Once on the other side, as its too dark for her to see, Shinpei suggests she can use her copy light to light the room. As she does, Ushio sees a key hole and guesses its a door. Shinpei calls her back, but they can't break the wall and need to look for the key. Ushio feels hungry and Shinpei takes out rice balls. As she stuffs herself, Shinpei realizes that the Hiruko statue also has a swelled stomach and it may be pregnant. Ushio reveals her scan can see inside of things, like human bones and organs, and as she scans the statue, she sees something in the statue belly. She takes a string of her hair and attempts to copy it, which ends up being a key. With it, Ushio opens the secret door and they see a tunel leading below, but Ushio warns them that she senses a presence of a Shadow down there. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, Sou comments it looks like an old underground canal dug during the war. Shinpei guesses no one has been here since decades and this is a path only shadows use. Ushio feels the direction of the Shadow, but feels chilly and has a bad feeling. Shinpei states that Ushio should focus on protecting herself and Sou to try and protect her as well. Shinpei notes that if he dies, he will loop again, but if Ushio dies first, he may end up looping without her, and if that happens, the next time he sees her may be on the festival or never. Heading towards the shadow, Shinpei sees a human-shaped dark stain, however, Ushio feels its quite old. Ushio then senses the shadow, which is right behind the next corner, where a rat just ran to. Shinpei goes to check and as he peeks, he sees a baby-like shadow which is missing its top half of the head, which then erases a rat. Shinpei prepares to pin it with a nailgun and throws a rock, but the shadow doesn't react, neither to the sound or the light. As he gets a bit closer, the shadow smells him out. The shadow then escapes past Shinpei, who misses with his nailgun. As it heads towards Sou, he hits it with his baseball bat, but the shadow turns to its shadow form, softening the blow and then transforms again and jumps at him. The shadow manages to pin Sou to the ground. Shinpei manages to calm himself down and then hits the shadow tree times with the nailgun, making it unable to move. Sou then throws it at Ushio, who then kills it. The group then celebrates, but a moment later, Ushio feels weird and states the first shadow she sensed is still around. As they continue, Ushio's arm starts to bleed due to the injury Mio gave her previously. She had printed a new arm, but it seems she haven't recovered from the damage. She then prints another arm to stop the bleeding. Continuing, Sou wonders if Ushio can copy the nailgun. Shinpei states they tried and she did, but the copied machines won't work and its just imitations, until the original is erased, which will then make the copy work. Shinpei reveals his nailgun is a copy and it has benefits, like if it runs out of nails, she can just print him a new one. They hear a gunfire and then reach a natural cave. Ushio then feels they are surrounded by shadows. Multiple baby-like shadows then attack them. ==Characters== *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *Miura *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] [[Category:Episodes]] 55d56a3b8f72941c3fbf0285ae954da34f09ac4a 839 832 2022-06-20T03:06:24Z 75.159.130.113 0 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Into the Darkness | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 10 | image = Episode 10 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = | previousEpisode = [[Episode 9]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 11]] |airDate = June 17, 2022 |storyboard = |adaptation =[[Chapter 47]]<br>[[Chapter 48]]<br>[[Chapter 49]]<br>[[Chapter 50]]<br>[[Chapter 51]]<br>[[Chapter 52]] }}'''Into the Darkness''' (闇の中へ, ''Yami no Naka e'') is the 10th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei learns the truth about Ushio's death.

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. <!--- fourth cycle ---> Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family.

Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him.

[[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio.

While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them.

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her.

The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio.

He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity.

Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

meets [[Heine]] and sees it as a chance to learn what she intends to do at the Summer Festival. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] explains that the appearance of Hiruko is the first human she copied, [[Heine]], and prefers to be called by that name. She is the God of Hitogashima, Hiruko no Mikoto and mother of Shadows. Lately she is having issue walking and needed a body replacement. Heine turns to [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and asks Shinpei how many times have they met. Shinpei realizes she was the one that killed Ushio and has been in front of him the entire time. As Shinpei yells, Heine reaches for him with shadow hands. Tokiko tells her she mustn't, and Heine stops, explainable that his voice is so loud and its painful. She can kill him at any time, but likes to eat in silence and he must not speak. Tokiko calls in Negoro, a nurse that works at their clinic. Tokiko explains that on average four people die on Hitogashima every year and they feed the dead to Heine. Her family have been doing it as long as it existed. Negoro brings two coffins. In one of them its Tadashi Miura, but in the other is Ushio. Tokiko explains that they burned a fake body and the bones they collected were printed by Heine. Shinpei asks Tokiko if she knew that they were after Shiori and Ushio. Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Heine proceeds and flashes to eat Tadashi Miura. She then turns towards Ushio. Shinpei knows that Shadows can't move for a few seconds while they scan. As Heine prepares to scan Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print it now. She then prints a nailgun in his hands and she shoots at the baby-like shadows, freeing Ushio. Shadow Ushio then jumps in and takes Ushio's body and scans her to regenerate her arm. Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Heine had enough, she causes Shadow Negoro to transform into more muscular form and go after Shinpei, but Ushio jumps in and starts fighting her. As Ushio regenerates her hand, she punches Negoro's shadow and kills her. Shinpei gets close to Heine and prepares to shoot her, but the nailgun and his fingers get cut. She Shadow parent had cut Shinpei's fingers and stands behind Shinpei. He tells Heine to stop as she was preparing to eat Shinpei. Heine is annoyed as the stole her food. The shadows tells Heine that he will take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. The shadow warns the rest that if they move, he will kill Mio. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] is still alive, but badly injured. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up and Ryunosuke switches to Hizuru, who asks where is Mio. TEtsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. Heine orders Ushio to come slowly. Shinpei tells her to eat him, since she wants to eat humans, but Heine rips his right eye. Heine states that to be able to defeat Negoro, Ushio had become much stronger and would be a waste to just erase her, so she will reprogram her as they would need her help tomorrow. Heine starts to overtake Ushio. Shinpei yells asking her to stop. His right eye then returns to him, making Heine realize its impossible to take his power. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu shows up, and a moment later Hizuru blows the shadow's head, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield, blocking the bullet and also shoots at Hizuru, hitting her in the head and killing her. The shadow then shoots Tetsu and kills him. The shadow starts to regenerate, mentioning it almost lost Shinpei, however, there is no one left to interfere. Shinpei thanks Hizuru and Tetsu, revealing he had a bottle with poison, which he drank already. Ushio recalls earlier that Shinpei told them that he will kill himself with mercuric chloride if one of then gets injured with no hope of recovery. As Shinpei is dying from the poison, the shadow guesses he must have died many times to be this prepared. Shinpei tells him, he will keep doing it, until he defeats them. Heine tells the shadow to look at Ushio, as she started to reverse her corrosion. She even started returning the corrosion back at her. Heine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill Heine. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but Shinpei takes her and starts looping back with her. As they loop back, Shinpei tells Ushio that they will defeat the shadows, even if it costs him his life. Shinpei loops back at the moment he meets Hizuru and Ginjiro and Hizuru guessing he is a time traveller. In that moment, Ushio also materializes next to Shinpei, holding his hand and Shinpei states they just returned from the future. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Heine]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *Negoro *Tadashi Miura *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] fc897f10fc19fc9a373a0d85c855f6ca67b94a10 890 888 2022-07-02T14:27:54Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Bloody Night | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 12 | image = Episode 12 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = | previousEpisode = [[Episode 11]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 13]] |airDate = July 1, 2022 |storyboard = |adaptation = }}'''Bloody Night''' (血の夜, ''Chi no Yoru'') is the 12th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Tokiko, the younger sister of Sou, says that she has been feeding dead people to Hiruko-sama, calling them "food".

TEtsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. Heine orders Ushio to come slowly. Shinpei tells her to eat him, since she wants to eat humans, but Heine rips his right eye. Heine states that to be able to defeat Negoro, Ushio had become much stronger and would be a waste to just erase her, so she will reprogram her as they would need her help tomorrow. Heine starts to overtake Ushio. Shinpei yells asking her to stop. His right eye then returns to him, making Heine realize its impossible to take his power. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu shows up, and a moment later Hizuru blows the shadow's head, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield, blocking the bullet and also shoots at Hizuru, hitting her in the head and killing her. The shadow then shoots Tetsu and kills him. The shadow starts to regenerate, mentioning it almost lost Shinpei, however, there is no one left to interfere. Shinpei thanks Hizuru and Tetsu, revealing he had a bottle with poison, which he drank already. Ushio recalls earlier that Shinpei told them that he will kill himself with mercuric chloride if one of then gets injured with no hope of recovery. As Shinpei is dying from the poison, the shadow guesses he must have died many times to be this prepared. Shinpei tells him, he will keep doing it, until he defeats them. Heine tells the shadow to look at Ushio, as she started to reverse her corrosion. She even started returning the corrosion back at her. Heine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill Heine. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but Shinpei takes her and starts looping back with her. As they loop back, Shinpei tells Ushio that they will defeat the shadows, even if it costs him his life. Shinpei loops back at the moment he meets Hizuru and Ginjiro and Hizuru guessing he is a time traveller. In that moment, Ushio also materializes next to Shinpei, holding his hand and Shinpei states they just returned from the future. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Heine]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *Negoro *Tadashi Miura *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 934fa579027ec0b366bd03756e68cb4cbd150e99 899 890 2022-07-03T01:09:02Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Bloody Night | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 12 | image = Episode 12 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Jun Shinohara | previousEpisode = [[Episode 11]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 13]] |airDate = July 1, 2022 |storyboard = Masashi Kojima |adaptation = }}'''Bloody Night''' (血の夜, ''Chi no Yoru'') is the 12th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Tokiko, the younger sister of Sou, says that she has been feeding dead people to Hiruko-sama, calling them "food". Hiruko-sama was Heine, a girl in kimono whom the "big shadow" who appeared at the Nittogashima Shrine on the day of the summer festival, had called her "Mother". Tokiko works with the "shadows" and tries to thwart the plans of Shinpei and his friends. The "big shadow" appears and has Mio as hostage. The "Big Shadow" planns to keep Shinpei alive while they were preparing for the day of the summer festival. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] meets [[Heine]] and sees it as a chance to learn what she intends to do at the Summer Festival. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] explains that the appearance of Hiruko is the first human she copied, [[Heine]], and prefers to be called by that name. She is the God of Hitogashima, Hiruko no Mikoto and mother of Shadows. Lately she is having issue walking and needed a body replacement. Heine turns to [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and asks Shinpei how many times have they met. Shinpei realizes she was the one that killed Ushio and has been in front of him the entire time. As Shinpei yells, Heine reaches for him with shadow hands. Tokiko tells her she mustn't, and Heine stops, explainable that his voice is so loud and its painful. She can kill him at any time, but likes to eat in silence and he must not speak. Tokiko calls in Negoro, a nurse that works at their clinic. Tokiko explains that on average four people die on Hitogashima every year and they feed the dead to Heine. Her family have been doing it as long as it existed. Negoro brings two coffins. In one of them its Tadashi Miura, but in the other is Ushio. Tokiko explains that they burned a fake body and the bones they collected were printed by Heine. Shinpei asks Tokiko if she knew that they were after Shiori and Ushio. Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Heine proceeds and flashes to eat Tadashi Miura. She then turns towards Ushio. Shinpei knows that Shadows can't move for a few seconds while they scan. As Heine prepares to scan Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print it now. She then prints a nailgun in his hands and she shoots at the baby-like shadows, freeing Ushio. Shadow Ushio then jumps in and takes Ushio's body and scans her to regenerate her arm. Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Heine had enough, she causes Shadow Negoro to transform into more muscular form and go after Shinpei, but Ushio jumps in and starts fighting her. As Ushio regenerates her hand, she punches Negoro's shadow and kills her. Shinpei gets close to Heine and prepares to shoot her, but the nailgun and his fingers get cut. She Shadow parent had cut Shinpei's fingers and stands behind Shinpei. He tells Heine to stop as she was preparing to eat Shinpei. Heine is annoyed as the stole her food. The shadows tells Heine that he will take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. The shadow warns the rest that if they move, he will kill Mio. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko.

However, the shadows are only targeting Ushio. At the same time, Mio and Tetsu saw the "shadow" of Shiori, who wants them to follow her. Shiori's "shadow" pointed to the bottom of a manhole as Shinpei's whereabouts, Mio and Tetsu follow the "shadow" of Shiori. Furthermore, Hizuru/Ryunosuke and Ginjiro witnessed the scene with Mio and Shiori. Shinpei and his friends managed to overcome their predicament, but an unexpected person appeared in front of them. ==Summary== Having a bad feeling, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] decides to in the city sewers and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] follows her. Meanwhile, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]], [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] and [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] are trying to escape from the baby-like shadows. Shinpei notices that the shadows are only targeting Ushio. Sou uses spray and a lighter to keep the shadows away. While going in the sewers, Hizuru had switched to Ryunosuke, who kills a shadow and fells that they are getting closer to their nest. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] tries calling Shinpei and Sou, but neither is picking their phones. She sees hair ties on the street and recognizes they belong to Shiori. A shadowy Shiori then calls her, telling her that Shinpei is there. As she runs towards her, she encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]]. She asks him if he saw Shiori, but he explains he didn't see anyone else. Mio then sees shadowy Shiori pointing to a manhole. They see the manhole is open, but Tetsu immediately is against it and doesn't wish to go down there to search, and that he is going for a drink and doesn't want Erika to state he stinks. Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and all over the news, which will make everyone, including Erika fall for him. Hearing that, Tetsu immediately goes into the manhole, but acts like he isn't doing to be famous. Shinpei and the rest manage to escape the shadows. They reach a cave full of corals and wonder how can there be sea creatures there. Ushio tells them that all of them are shadows. Shinpei notices that Ushio isn't well and that her wound haven't healed. Ushio tells him that due to Mio's attack, she suffered data loss and needs to scan the original to regain the data. However, as Ushio is ashes now, he cannot heal her wound. Ushio then erases her arm to stop the pain, while Shinpei wonders if he should loop back and redo things. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] appears with two baby-like shadows, telling them to turn slowly and not do anything strange or Ushio will die. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. Tetsu and Mio then approach, with Tetsu complaining and wanting to go back, but Mio tells him, she will tell Erika how brave he is. They see Shiori behind the metal bars, who then flashes and makes the bars disappear, allowing them to proceed. As the path is now open, Ginjiro still doesn't wish to continue, but Ryunosuke states that at least Mio is human for sure as she has now immunity. Tokiko congratulates them for surviving after trespassing on sacred ground. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] calls Negoro and tells her to use the policeman's, Tadashi Miura's body as today's food at 9 o'clock. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori appears and Ryunosuke explains that if she is alive, then it means she acted like she was killed, but escaped through the cracks on the street to underground, which made Hizuru suspicious about the sewers. Shiori wonders why they came, as she told them they will die the next time they meet it. Shiori reveals that she knows Ryunosuke's full name, which she realized while they talked in Kobayakawa's house. That makes Ryunosuke realize this is Heine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is [[Heine]], who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. ==Characters== *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *Negoro *Tadashi Miura *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Heine]] [[Category:Episodes]] 677dbe66f4773811f7fbf13c5cd6d73f7571fa92 885 874 2022-06-26T15:54:18Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Feeding Time | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 11 | image = Episode 11 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Nobu Ishida | previousEpisode = [[Episode 10]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 12]] |airDate = June 24, 2022 |storyboard = Hiroaki Shimura |adaptation = [[Chapter 52]] (p. 15-17)<br>[[Chapter 53]]<br>[[Chapter 54]]<br>[[Chapter 55]]<br>[[Chapter 56]]<br>[[Chapter 57]] (p. 1-12, 14-19) }}'''Feeding Time''' (食餌の時間, ''Shokuji no Jikan'') is the 11th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei, Ushio, and Sou are surrounded by shadows.

They see the manhole is open, but Tetsu immediately is against it and doesn't wish to go down there to search, and that he is going for a drink and doesn't want Erika to state he stinks. Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and all over the news, which will make everyone, including Erika fall for him. Hearing that, Tetsu immediately goes into the manhole, but acts like he isn't doing to be famous. Shinpei and the rest manage to escape the shadows. They reach a cave full of corals and wonder how can there be sea creatures there. Ushio tells them that all of them are shadows. Shinpei notices that Ushio isn't well and that her wound haven't healed. Ushio tells him that due to Mio's attack, she suffered data loss and needs to scan the original to regain the data. However, as Ushio is ashes now, he cannot heal her wound. Ushio then erases her arm to stop the pain, while Shinpei wonders if he should loop back and redo things. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] appears with two baby-like shadows, telling them to turn slowly and not do anything strange or Ushio will die. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. Tetsu and Mio then approach, with Tetsu complaining and wanting to go back, but Mio tells him, she will tell Erika how brave he is. They see Shiori behind the metal bars, who then flashes and makes the bars disappear, allowing them to proceed. As the path is now open, Ginjiro still doesn't wish to continue, but Ryunosuke states that at least Mio is human for sure as she has now immunity. Tokiko congratulates them for surviving after trespassing on sacred ground. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] calls Negoro and tells her to use the policeman's, Tadashi Miura's body as today's food at 9 o'clock. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori appears and Ryunosuke explains that if she is alive, then it means she acted like she was killed, but escaped through the cracks on the street to underground, which made Hizuru suspicious about the sewers. Shiori wonders why they came, as she told them they will die the next time they meet it. Shiori reveals that she knows Ryunosuke's full name, which she realized while they talked in Kobayakawa's house. That makes Ryunosuke realize this is Heine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is [[Heine]], who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. ==Characters== *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *Negoro *Tadashi Miura *[[Heine]] [[Category:Episodes]] 745e36477cd3199eca9a1cf25e7c70fa94a3a7ca 6 487 875 2022-06-26T11:47:38Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 0 221 876 834 2022-06-26T15:38:07Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Shinpei Ajiro | image = Shinpei Ajiro.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = | gender = Male | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = Natsuki Hanae | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Shinpei Ajiro''' (網代 慎平, ''Ajiro Shinpei'') is a 17-year-old boy who returned to his hometown of Hitogashima for the first time in two years to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, [[Ushio Kofune]]. Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. <!--- second cycle ---> Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. <!--- third cycle ---> This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. <!--- fourth cycle ---> Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ==4th Loop== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original.

She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty.

He has a strong sense of justice and regrets that he was present at the scene of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s maritime accident but was unable to prevent it. He has confessed his feelings to [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] twice in the past and was rejected. ==Appearance== Sou is a young man with messy brown hair and brown eyes. ==Personality== ==Plot== <!--- first cycle ---> At [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Sou hugs Shinpei and apologizes for not being able to help her. He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. <!--- third cycle ---> When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow.

Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

He is the eldest son of Hishigata Clinic, the only hospital on Hitogashima, and is studying to become a doctor. He has a strong sense of justice and regrets that he was present at the scene of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s maritime accident but was unable to prevent it. He has confessed his feelings to [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] twice in the past and was rejected. ==Appearance== Sou is a young man with messy brown hair and brown eyes. ==Personality== ==Plot== ==1st Loop== At [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Sou hugs Shinpei and apologizes for not being able to help her. He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ==3rd Loop== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ==4th Loop== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori.

Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== ==Plot== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. <!--- third cycle ---> On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. <!--- fourth cycle ---> On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

The two then see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. Tetsu finds badly injured Ryunosuke who switches to Hizuru, who asks where is Mio. Tetsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. As he takes her, she shoots at the shadow parent and frees, Shinpei, but then gets killed by it. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu. == Etymology == * The name '''Tetsu''' means "philosophy" (哲). * Tetsu's surname '''Totsumura''' means "convex, beetle brow, uneven" (凸) ('''totsu''') and "town, village" (村) ('''mura''').

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her brother '''Ryunosuke Minakata''' takes over when she is forced to do things she dislikes. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. <!--- second cycle ---> The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. <!--- third cycle ---> On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. <!--- fourth cycle ---> On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== ==Plot== <!--- first cycle ---> Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. <!--- third cycle ---> Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. <!--- fourth cycle ---> On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. |-| 2nd Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune & Tetsu Totsumura''': [[Tetsu Totsumura]] sees Shadow Mio standing in front of Kofune's house. Shadow Mio then kills him, stabbing him multiple times with a kitchen knife. She then flashes and creates another Shadow, which transforms into Tetsu. Shadow Tetsu touches the dead Tetsu, causing another flash and disentigrading his body. Shadow Mio informs Shadow Tetsu that he is now Tetsu Totsumura, the police officer. Assuming his role, Mio then asks him to give her his gun, causing Tetsu to realize she still haven't killed the real Mio and taken her place. Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital. Taking the gun, Shadow Mio comments that she can't go in and kill her now or everyone will hear the gunshot and will be just scouting for today. In that moment, Shinpei's phone vibrates, Mio hears it, find Shinpei and stabs him in the neck.

Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him.

In her shadow she slides behind Hizuru and comes out attempting to stab Hizuru, however, Hizuru dodges and points the gun at Mio's shadow on the ground and shoots it. Mio is surprised she managed to dodge that and then dies from the gunshot.

Shadow Shinpei states that Shinpei can't control it on will, but if he keeps returning to 22nd, he will one day become a hindrance.

Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. |-| 4th Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': Shadow Mio copies [[Alain Kofune]] and creates Shadow Alain, but learns that he also doesn't know where Ushio is. After learning that Shiori was killed, Mio decides to eliminate Shinpei. Instead of staying in front of the house, she enters and gets to his room. She attempts to stab him, but Ushio protects him and takes the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds her. Shinpei opens the curtain and challenges Mio, but she wonders why Ushio protected him.

She proceeds to cry about the tragedy, but Hizuru sees that the Kobayawa family are all shadows. Shinpei tells Shiori that what she saw is a shadow and if she sees her again, she must run. A bit later Asako approaches Shinpei and asks him what he means. Seeing they are shadows, Shinpei explains its something he heard from Mio's grandmother when they were kids. Hizuru speculated that Shadow Shiori had drowned Shiori and erased her in the sea, and then acted as she is the one drowning. As she was saved and returned home, she killed and copied Shiori's parents. In the evening, Hizuru visits the Kobayakawa and Asako lets her in as Shiori orders her to. Once inside, Hizuru takes out a hammer and smashes Asako's head. Tetsuo attacks her, but she smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attacks, but Shiori smashes her shadow and kills her. Shiori then acts as a child, standing behind Hizuru and wondering why. Hizuru quickly turns and smashes Shiori's shadow, but Shiori manages to survive and moves away. She then attacks Hizuru and starts strangling her. She comments that she is dangerous as she knows how the kill shadows. However, she wonders if she is even human as she is faster than a shadow. Hizuru tells her to scan her and learn herself and Shiori states she will do, once she kills her. Hizuru then stabs herself with chopsticks and Shiori's shadow that was on Hizuru's body, which surprises Shiori, who then run to the third floor. Hizuru follows and enters Shiori's room. She then feels Shiori's presence and tells her its pointless as if she attempts to scan her, she knows that she won't be able to move for couple of seconds and will then kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and run past Hizuru and escapes through the window. As she goes outside, [[Ginjiro Nezu]] starts shooting her with a nail gun, but she manages to get past him. At a corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles Shiori, who attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro comes and shoots her shadow three times and tells Shinpei to release her as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move.

Shadow Alain follows him there. He sees that one of the toilet stalls has "maintenance" note and opens the next one, but instead of Alain, he sees Hizuru, who immediately slams a large hammer at Alain's shadow and explains that she calculated 17 different scenarios where Shadow Alain would attack Alain.

'''Shadow Ushio Kofune''': Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him.

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body.

anime. ==Synopsis== The fifth time, on July 22. When Shinpei regains consciousness, it is at the same time that Hizuru becomes convinced that Shinpei is a time traveler. He tells Hizuru about his past experiences and she decides to trust Shinpei and work together with him. The group heads to the Kobayakawas' house to ensure that Shiori's "shadow" is killed, but Hizuru (Ryunosuke) is unexpectedly attacked. Annihilated, Shinpei thinks he is starting his sixth time, but he is in the world 14 years ago - in Hizuru's memory. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] returns to July 22nd, when he meets [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. As Ushio loops with him, she jumps and hugs Hizuru, happy to see her alive. [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] points his gun at Ushio, but Shinpei and Hizuru stop him. Hizuru wonders if she died and Shinpei confirms. After telling her what happened, Shinpei wonders why he has this power. Hizuru explains that if his eye belonged to Heine, then its made of Shadows and asks him if he remembers when it was printed. Shinpei believes its after he came back to the island. Hizuru believes that Ushio gave him the eye. Hizuru asks him why he thinks they failed this time. Shinpei explains one of the reasons is that they acted separately after defeating Mio's Shadow and wants they to work together this time. Hizuru agrees and shakes hands with Ushio, who shows Hizuru and Ginjiro her memories. Hizuru then starts to believe that Ushio is indeed their ally and she got the message from her and Shinpei his eye. Ginjiro states that if Shiori is part of Hiruko, no matter how many times they kill her, she won't die as Shiori is only a small part of Hiruko's shadow. Ushio states that Shiori isn't strong and it can only move, but Hiruko's body is too weak and can't move away from the cave. Shinpei wishes they go directly for Hiruko, but if the four-armed shadow is there, they don't have a chance. He is also worried about the others. Ushio suggest they capture Shiori like last time. Once they do, Ushio will try to erase her. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] wants to speak with his father about Ushio, but [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] refuses, stating he doesn't have time. As his wife insists to find time, Seido agrees and tells he will give Sou five minutes in his room at 10PM. Outside, Seido makes a call and explains that Shinpei is looking into the shadow sickness. Before that Ushio and Hizuru had done the same. The person on the phone, states that it can't be coincidence that Hizuru returned and Ushio must had contacted Shinpei. Seido heard that Ushio's shadow is missing and wasn't erased, but is assured it will be found and erased. The group prepares to attack the Kobayakawas and Hizuru switches to Ryunosuke. A bit earlier, Ushio explains that she believes she can erase Shiori by tracing the circuits she entered inside her in reverse. Shinpei shares that in the previous loop, Ginjiro told him that Ryunosuke was killed by a shadow and had strangle marks. Shinpei wonders if Heine was the one that killed him and Hizuru confirms, saying she was also her friend. Back at the Kobayakawas, Ryunosuke listens to Hizuru's notes and that they had to went to Plan B. Ryunosuke then enters and attacks Asako. Outside, since there are no other people, Shinpei tells Ushio that she can show up. As she comes out, she remembers something and pulls a string of her hair and prints the nailgun. Shinpei realizes she can take the data she scanned into other loops. As Ginjiro brought two nailguns, they name the first nailgun A and the second nailgun B. Ushio then scans the second and erases the original. Ushio's storage was full, so she couldn't scan nailgun A. The group then prepares for a message from Ryunosuke, however, they are surprised when they see Ryunosuke flying through the window. Ryunosuke tells them to run as this isn't the same 22nd they know. In that moment, the four-armed shadow smashes Ryunosuke's head with his hammer. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Heine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and Ginjiro shoots his shadow three times, pinning him, however the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. She knows that if she attempt to scan the whole shadow, she will loose her sense of self, so she decides to scan only one arm. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Heine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. While looping, Shinpei notes that he should have figured the enemy had the same power as him. He asks Ushio if she is fine and Ushio, who turned into his watch, states she is fine. She scanned his arm to see if she can figure out whose shadow he is, but it was empty and there was no data, but had the same smell as Heine. Shinpei returns around their home, but its strange as its raining, while on 22nd it was sunny. He then sees two people and recognize one of them being Hizuru. He decides to go after them, but can't interact with anything physical. Shinpei is then moved into the Kofune's restaurant, where Alain greets Hizuru and Ryunosuke. Shinpei sees that this is fourteen years ago. He mentions that when he died for the first time, he saw a memory of Mio and this could be Hizuru's memory. As its full, Hizuru wishes to go, but Asako stops her, sayings its the 10th anniversary of Kofune restaurant and she should celebrate with the rest. [[Masahito Karikiri|Masahito]] comes to celebrate as well, but as he enters, Hizuru tells him to leave, however, Masahito takes it that she is happy to see him. Shinpei even sees his parents there, who used to be marine archaeologist and spent a lot of time diving. Asako wonders if Hizuru is in a bad mood and Ryunosuke states its his fault. She told him she made a friend, but she joked it must be a dream. Asako wonders where Hizuru met her new friend and Hizuru states Mt. Takanosu. Shinpei is then moved to Hishigata's old clinic in the mountain. Hizuru takes Asako and Ryunosuke to meet her new friend. Hizuru explains that she always appears at the same time, but as they wait, no one shows up. Ryunosuke and Asako decide to leave, but Hizuru had promised to meet her friend today, so she decides to stay. Moments later, Heine shows up and Hizuru greets her. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *Negoro *Asako Kobayakawa *[[Heine]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *Akemi Ajiro *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *Toru Ajiro [[Category:Episodes]] aeb0da658f4654a5a126a0f98f31479467d59d32 0 219 915 830 2022-07-03T01:37:51Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Anime |title1 = Summer Time Rendering |image = <gallery> Summer Time Rendering Key Visual 1.png|Key Visual 1 Summer Time Rendering Key Visual 2.png|Key Visual 2 Summer Time Rendering Key Visual 3.png|Key Visual 3 </gallery> |title = Summer Time Rendering, サマータイムレンダ |work = OLM |original run = April 25, 2022 - ? |episodes = 25 |genre = Drama, Mystery, Supernatural }}'''Summer Time Rendering''' (サマータイムレンダ) is a Japanese anime series based on the [[Summer Time Rendering (manga)|Summer Time Rendering]] manga by Yasuki Tanaka.

Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Heine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Heine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, [[Ushio Kofune]]. Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ==1st Loop== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ==2nd Loop== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ==3rd Loop== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ==4th Loop== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ==5th Loop== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals taht she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire.

Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her brother '''Ryunosuke Minakata''' takes over when she is forced to do things she dislikes. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ==1st Loop== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ==2nd Loop== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ==3rd Loop== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ==4th Loop== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ==5th Loop== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her brother '''Ryunosuke Minakata''' takes over when she is forced to do things she dislikes. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow.

Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it.

They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself.

To soften the attack, it transforms to its flat form and then back to its baby form and jumps on Sou. As its about to kill him, Shinpei shoots it with a nailgun, making it unable to move.

Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Heine, the shadow appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Heine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as well as she is an important hostage.

The shadow is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Heine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end.

Negoro then jumps in to fight Ushio, but ends up killed by her. |-| 5th Loop = '''Shadow Ushio Kofune''': Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow.

She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery.

Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. == 5th Loop == Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms.

time in 14 years for a certain reason. She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her brother twin''' [[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to do things she dislikes. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family.

Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

One day, however, Heine is unable to bear her "hunger" and goes berserk. A series of events that occurred in the past reveal how Ryunosuke came to live in Hizuru's mind. Shinpei and Ushio, who were in Hizuru's memory, find themselves back before the raid on the Kobayakawa family. The mission was aborted, and that night Shinpei gathered everyone at Nittogashima Elementary School and had each of them relive the loop they had been in with the help of Ushio. ==Summary== [[Heine]] apologizes that she didn't meet [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]'s friends. She mentions that Hizuru is different that others as usually they are scared of her. Since there were rumours of a ghost at the clinic, Shide had forbidden her to meet with people. Hizuru wonders who is Shide and Heine notes its a secret, but reveals he is greed incarnate and that's why it has four arms. The two continue to spend time together and play games, with Hizuru often bringing snacks for Heine, who feels she is getting more hungry and hates it. One day, Hizuru meets [[Ginjiro Nezu]], who warns her its dangerous as there are snake in the forest. Hizuru wonders if its not dangerous for him and Ginjiro confirms, but notes that he gets paid to hunt the snakes. Asako and Ryunosuke check the Kobe mart, hearing that Hizuru brought snacks and intended to eat them with a friend, making them realize she is meeting Heine. Ryunosuke heads towards the clinic to bring some water to Hizuru. On his way, he hears something and goes to check it. He sees Heine, who was bloody and eating a small animal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] realizes this is bad and yells for Hizuru, who ends up hearing him, but then thinks its her imagination. She then sees a flash and upon checking it, she finds Heine over the death Ryunosuke. Hizuru wonders if she did it. Heine comes back to her sense, and turns into Ryunosuke. She starts denying it and as she yells, a flash occurs and her eye is blown away. Hizuru's covers her left eye, but her right is exposed to the light. Feeling pain, Heine then retreats in her shadow. Two stray incomplete shadows appear, looking like a mother and child. The child shadow runs towards Hizuru, but Ginjiro appears and attacks it. A flash occurs and the mother shadow turns into Ginjiro. Shadow Ginjiro then attacks Ginjiro and injures his eye. Hizuru hears her brother and then takes Ginijro and jumps away. As the shadows follow them, Ryunosuke had taken control over Hizuru. He notes that he found her and had brought water. The child shadow jumps at Ryunosuke, who pulls out the knife Ginjiro threw and then stabs the shadow. [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] realizes that Ryunosuke's data bounced of Heine and entered Hizuru. Shadow Ginjiro comes behind Ryunosuke, but he predicts it and dodges, then throws Ginjiro to the ground and kills him. Some time after that, Hizuru decides to leave the island and Asako gives her a farewell letter. As she leaves with the boat, Hizuru sees Heine, who tells her she is letting her go because they were friends, but the next time she will kill her. Shinpei loops back to them heading towards the Kobayakawas and tells Ryunosuke they shouldn't go. Heine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. One hour later, Shinpei brings some food to Hizuru and tells her he realizes that Ryunosuke mind entered inside of her. Hizuru explains that she prefers if Ryunosuke doesn't fight, making Shinpei believes its because she loves him and wants to protect him, however, Hizuru reveals that he is a strain to her body and if he seriously go out, he will shred her body. Hizuru believes that Mio will attack again, but will once again ignore Mio and go for Shinpei, due to orders from Heine and with Heine's mark on Shinpei, they can lure her where they want. Meanwhile, Ushio shares her memories with others, so that they know what happened in previous loops. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. Meanwhile, Ginjiro is up a hill, observing and wondering from where the shadows will come. He hears something and pulls his knife, but ends up being an animal. A moment later, Shadow Mio stabs him in the head, killing him. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] thinks that Shinpei is crazy, asking them to die with him. Ushio states that Shinpei loves them all and there is nothing wrong to side with the people you love. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] agrees to fight with them, same with [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]]. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. Tetsu can't believe this, but as everyone else agreed, he decides to join them as well. Shinpei thanks them and in that moment, a blink occurs and he finds himself earlier at home, making him wonder if he died and looped back. ==Characters== *[[Heine]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *Asako Kobayakawa *[[Ryunosuke Minakata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] [[Category:Episodes]] e925ac5cb7f523f8e876da82736d34ca75ea4e39 992 976 2022-07-18T15:01:02Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = to be/not to be | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 14 | image = Episode 14 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Makaria | previousEpisode = [[Episode 13]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 15]] |airDate = July 15, 2022 |storyboard = Yasunori Watanabe |adaptation = [[Chapter 69]]<br>[[Chapter 70]]<br>[[Chapter 71]]<br>[[Chapter 72]]<br>[[Chapter 73]] (p. 1-11)<br>[[Chapter 74]] (p. 1-16)<br>[[Chapter 75]] (p. 1-11) }}'''to be/not to be''' is the 14th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Hizuru and Heine used to be friends.

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ==6th Loop== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ==7th Loop== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her.

Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Heine, the shadow appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Heine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as well as she is an important hostage.

The shadow is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Heine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end.

She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru.

'''Shadow Parent / Shide''': Heine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': Ginjiro had taken a snipe spot and awaiting for the shadows to come at the elementary school.

When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

He is so lighthearted that it is hard to believe that he is a police officer. ==Appearance== Tetsu is an adult man with messy orange hair. He is usually in his police uniform and wears yellow glass sunglasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== The evening of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Tetsu sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] standing in front of her house and looking inside. The next day, he misses breakfast and goes at lunch at Kofune's dinner and orders the usual. Mio takes his order and wonder why he didn't came in the morning and Tetsu explains that the whole Kobayakawa family is gone, making him believe that they had a debt and ran in the middle of the night. ===2nd Loop=== On the second time Shinpei arrived on Hitogashima, he goes outside to take some fresh air. There he sees when Tetsu found Mio staring at her house. Tetsu wonders what is she doing, but Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife. She then produces a shadow, which copies Tetsu's appearance and takes on his identity. Mio wants Tetsu's gun, making the Shadow realize, she has not yet killed the real Mio. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, in the evening, Shinpei calls Tetsu and reports a fake fight. As Tetsu goes to check out the fight, he avoids meeting Shadow Mio. The next day, Tetsu gets called to investigate the missing Kobayakawa family. He later goes to Kofune's Diner and sees Shinpei, ready to scold him for the fake fight report, but Shinpei asks him if he wants the usual and Tetsu confirms. Tetsu reveals the Kobayakawa family is gone and that a detective will be coming from mainland this evening. He then gives to Shinpei a phone that Ushio had left him and told him to give to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, a day before she died. ===4th Loop=== Tetsu is on his way to the bar to drink and talk with Erika, but encounters Mio, who wonders if he saw Shiori, but he denies it. The two then see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. Tetsu finds badly injured Ryunosuke who switches to Hizuru, who asks where is Mio. Tetsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. As he takes her, she shoots at the shadow parent and frees, Shinpei, but then gets killed by it. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu. ===6th Loop=== Tetsu along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops.

She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him.

They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool.

He has a strong sense of justice and regrets that he was present at the scene of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s maritime accident but was unable to prevent it. He has confessed his feelings to [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] twice in the past and was rejected. ==Appearance== Sou is a young man with messy brown hair and brown eyes. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== At [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Sou hugs Shinpei and apologizes for not being able to help her. He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ===3rd Loop=== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ===4th Loop=== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. ===6th Loop=== Sou along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops.

Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow.

The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori.

The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

When Shinpei regains consciousness, it is at the same time that Hizuru becomes convinced that Shinpei is a time traveler. He tells Hizuru about his past experiences and she decides to trust Shinpei and work together with him. The group heads to the Kobayakawas' house to ensure that Shiori's "shadow" is killed, but Hizuru (Ryunosuke) is unexpectedly attacked. Annihilated, Shinpei thinks he is starting his sixth time, but he is in the world 14 years ago - in Hizuru's memory. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] returns to July 22nd, when he meets [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. As Ushio loops with him, she jumps and hugs Hizuru, happy to see her alive. [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] points his gun at Ushio, but Shinpei and Hizuru stop him. Hizuru wonders if she died and Shinpei confirms. After telling her what happened, Shinpei wonders why he has this power. Hizuru explains that if his eye belonged to Heine, then its made of Shadows and asks him if he remembers when it was printed. Shinpei believes its after he came back to the island. Hizuru believes that Ushio gave him the eye. Hizuru asks him why he thinks they failed this time. Shinpei explains one of the reasons is that they acted separately after defeating Mio's Shadow and wants they to work together this time. Hizuru agrees and shakes hands with Ushio, who shows Hizuru and Ginjiro her memories. Hizuru then starts to believe that Ushio is indeed their ally and she got the message from her and Shinpei his eye. Ginjiro states that if Shiori is part of Hiruko, no matter how many times they kill her, she won't die as Shiori is only a small part of Hiruko's shadow. Ushio states that Shiori isn't strong and it can only move, but Hiruko's body is too weak and can't move away from the cave. Shinpei wishes they go directly for Hiruko, but if the four-armed shadow is there, they don't have a chance. He is also worried about the others. Ushio suggest they capture Shiori like last time. Once they do, Ushio will try to erase her. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] wants to speak with his father about Ushio, but [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] refuses, stating he doesn't have time. As his wife insists to find time, Seido agrees and tells he will give Sou five minutes in his room at 10PM. Outside, Seido makes a call and explains that Shinpei is looking into the shadow sickness. Before that Ushio and Hizuru had done the same. The person on the phone, states that it can't be coincidence that Hizuru returned and Ushio must had contacted Shinpei. Seido heard that Ushio's shadow is missing and wasn't erased, but is assured it will be found and erased. The group prepares to attack the Kobayakawas and Hizuru switches to Ryunosuke. A bit earlier, Ushio explains that she believes she can erase Shiori by tracing the circuits she entered inside her in reverse. Shinpei shares that in the previous loop, Ginjiro told him that Ryunosuke was killed by a shadow and had strangle marks. Shinpei wonders if Heine was the one that killed him and Hizuru confirms, saying she was also her friend. Back at the Kobayakawas, Ryunosuke listens to Hizuru's notes and that they had to went to Plan B. Ryunosuke then enters and attacks Asako. Outside, since there are no other people, Shinpei tells Ushio that she can show up. As she comes out, she remembers something and pulls a string of her hair and prints the nailgun. Shinpei realizes she can take the data she scanned into other loops. As Ginjiro brought two nailguns, they name the first nailgun A and the second nailgun B. Ushio then scans the second and erases the original. Ushio's storage was full, so she couldn't scan nailgun A. The group then prepares for a message from Ryunosuke, however, they are surprised when they see Ryunosuke flying through the window. Ryunosuke tells them to run as this isn't the same 22nd they know. In that moment, the four-armed shadow smashes Ryunosuke's head with his hammer. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Heine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and Ginjiro shoots his shadow three times, pinning him, however the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. She knows that if she attempt to scan the whole shadow, she will loose her sense of self, so she decides to scan only one arm. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Heine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. While looping, Shinpei notes that he should have figured the enemy had the same power as him. He asks Ushio if she is fine and Ushio, who turned into his watch, states she is fine. She scanned his arm to see if she can figure out whose shadow he is, but it was empty and there was no data, but had the same smell as Heine. Shinpei returns around their home, but its strange as its raining, while on 22nd it was sunny. He then sees two people and recognize one of them being Hizuru. He decides to go after them, but can't interact with anything physical. Shinpei is then moved into the Kofune's restaurant, where Alain greets Hizuru and Ryunosuke. Shinpei sees that this is fourteen years ago. He mentions that when he died for the first time, he saw a memory of Mio and this could be Hizuru's memory. As its full, Hizuru wishes to go, but Asako stops her, sayings its the 10th anniversary of Kofune restaurant and she should celebrate with the rest. [[Masahito Karikiri|Masahito]] comes to celebrate as well, but as he enters, Hizuru tells him to leave, however, Masahito takes it that she is happy to see him. Shinpei even sees his parents there, who used to be marine archaeologist and spent a lot of time diving. Asako wonders if Hizuru is in a bad mood and Ryunosuke states its his fault. She told him she made a friend, but she joked it must be a dream. Asako wonders where Hizuru met her new friend and Hizuru states Mt. Takanosu. Shinpei is then moved to Hishigata's old clinic in the mountain. Hizuru takes Asako and Ryunosuke to meet her new friend. Hizuru explains that she always appears at the same time, but as they wait, no one shows up. Ryunosuke and Asako decide to leave, but Hizuru had promised to meet her friend today, so she decides to stay. Moments later, Heine shows up and Hizuru greets her. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *Negoro *Asako Kobayakawa *[[Heine]] *[[Shide]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *Akemi Ajiro *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *Toru Ajiro [[Category:Episodes]] dd895f21a3dd86748b06eb0195a57eea610b871c 0 480 994 900 2022-07-18T15:02:53Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Bloody Night | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 12 | image = Episode 12 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Jun Shinohara | previousEpisode = [[Episode 11]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 13]] |airDate = July 1, 2022 |storyboard = Masashi Kojima |adaptation = [[Chapter 58]] (p. 1-2, 4-19)<br>[[Chapter 59]]<br>[[Chapter 60]]<br>[[Chapter 61]]<br>[[Chapter 62]] (p. 3-22)<br>[[Chapter 63]] }}'''Bloody Night''' (血の夜, ''Chi no Yoru'') is the 12th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Tokiko, the younger sister of Sou, says that she has been feeding dead people to Hiruko-sama, calling them "food". Hiruko-sama was Heine, a girl in kimono whom the "big shadow" who appeared at the Nittogashima Shrine on the day of the summer festival, had called her "Mother". Tokiko works with the "shadows" and tries to thwart the plans of Shinpei and his friends. The "big shadow" appears and has Mio as hostage. The "Big Shadow" planns to keep Shinpei alive while they were preparing for the day of the summer festival. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] meets [[Heine]] and sees it as a chance to learn what she intends to do at the Summer Festival. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] explains that the appearance of Hiruko is the first human she copied, [[Heine]], and prefers to be called by that name. She is the God of Hitogashima, Hiruko no Mikoto and mother of Shadows. Lately she is having issue walking and needed a body replacement. Heine turns to [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and asks Shinpei how many times have they met. Shinpei realizes she was the one that killed Ushio and has been in front of him the entire time. As Shinpei yells, Heine reaches for him with shadow hands. Tokiko tells her she mustn't, and Heine stops, explainable that his voice is so loud and its painful. She can kill him at any time, but likes to eat in silence and he must not speak. Tokiko calls in Negoro, a nurse that works at their clinic. Tokiko explains that on average four people die on Hitogashima every year and they feed the dead to Heine. Her family have been doing it as long as it existed. Negoro brings two coffins. In one of them its Tadashi Miura, but in the other is Ushio. Tokiko explains that they burned a fake body and the bones they collected were printed by Heine. Shinpei asks Tokiko if she knew that they were after Shiori and Ushio. Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Heine proceeds and flashes to eat Tadashi Miura. She then turns towards Ushio. Shinpei knows that Shadows can't move for a few seconds while they scan. As Heine prepares to scan Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print it now. She then prints a nailgun in his hands and she shoots at the baby-like shadows, freeing Ushio. Shadow Ushio then jumps in and takes Ushio's body and scans her to regenerate her arm. Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Heine had enough, she causes Shadow Negoro to transform into more muscular form and go after Shinpei, but Ushio jumps in and starts fighting her. As Ushio regenerates her hand, she punches Negoro's shadow and kills her. Shinpei gets close to Heine and prepares to shoot her, but the nailgun and his fingers get cut. She Shadow parent had cut Shinpei's fingers and stands behind Shinpei. He tells Heine to stop as she was preparing to eat Shinpei. Heine is annoyed as the stole her food. The shadows tells Heine that he will take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. The shadow warns the rest that if they move, he will kill Mio. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] is still alive, but badly injured. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up and Ryunosuke switches to Hizuru, who asks where is Mio. TEtsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. Heine orders Ushio to come slowly. Shinpei tells her to eat him, since she wants to eat humans, but Heine rips his right eye. Heine states that to be able to defeat Negoro, Ushio had become much stronger and would be a waste to just erase her, so she will reprogram her as they would need her help tomorrow. Heine starts to overtake Ushio. Shinpei yells asking her to stop. His right eye then returns to him, making Heine realize its impossible to take his power. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu shows up, and a moment later Hizuru blows the shadow's head, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield, blocking the bullet and also shoots at Hizuru, hitting her in the head and killing her. The shadow then shoots Tetsu and kills him. The shadow starts to regenerate, mentioning it almost lost Shinpei, however, there is no one left to interfere. Shinpei thanks Hizuru and Tetsu, revealing he had a bottle with poison, which he drank already. Ushio recalls earlier that Shinpei told them that he will kill himself with mercuric chloride if one of then gets injured with no hope of recovery. As Shinpei is dying from the poison, the shadow guesses he must have died many times to be this prepared. Shinpei tells him, he will keep doing it, until he defeats them. Heine tells the shadow to look at Ushio, as she started to reverse her corrosion. She even started returning the corrosion back at her. Heine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill Heine. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but Shinpei takes her and starts looping back with her. As they loop back, Shinpei tells Ushio that they will defeat the shadows, even if it costs him his life. Shinpei loops back at the moment he meets Hizuru and Ginjiro and Hizuru guessing he is a time traveller. In that moment, Ushio also materializes next to Shinpei, holding his hand and Shinpei states they just returned from the future. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Heine]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *Negoro *Tadashi Miura *[[Shide]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 725b469b9601289bce96dd8c894848c63ac7e8a5 0 475 995 885 2022-07-18T15:03:49Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Feeding Time | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 11 | image = Episode 11 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Nobu Ishida | previousEpisode = [[Episode 10]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 12]] |airDate = June 24, 2022 |storyboard = Hiroaki Shimura |adaptation = [[Chapter 52]] (p. 15-17)<br>[[Chapter 53]]<br>[[Chapter 54]]<br>[[Chapter 55]]<br>[[Chapter 56]]<br>[[Chapter 57]] (p. 1-12, 14-19) }}'''Feeding Time''' (食餌の時間, ''Shokuji no Jikan'') is the 11th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei, Ushio, and Sou are surrounded by shadows. However, the shadows are only targeting Ushio. At the same time, Mio and Tetsu saw the "shadow" of Shiori, who wants them to follow her. Shiori's "shadow" pointed to the bottom of a manhole as Shinpei's whereabouts, Mio and Tetsu follow the "shadow" of Shiori. Furthermore, Hizuru/Ryunosuke and Ginjiro witnessed the scene with Mio and Shiori. Shinpei and his friends managed to overcome their predicament, but an unexpected person appeared in front of them. ==Summary== Having a bad feeling, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] decides to in the city sewers and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] follows her. Meanwhile, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]], [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] and [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] are trying to escape from the baby-like shadows. Shinpei notices that the shadows are only targeting Ushio. Sou uses spray and a lighter to keep the shadows away. While going in the sewers, Hizuru had switched to Ryunosuke, who kills a shadow and fells that they are getting closer to their nest. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] tries calling Shinpei and Sou, but neither is picking their phones. She sees hair ties on the street and recognizes they belong to Shiori. A shadowy Shiori then calls her, telling her that Shinpei is there. As she runs towards her, she encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]]. She asks him if he saw Shiori, but he explains he didn't see anyone else. Mio then sees shadowy Shiori pointing to a manhole. They see the manhole is open, but Tetsu immediately is against it and doesn't wish to go down there to search, and that he is going for a drink and doesn't want Erika to state he stinks. Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and all over the news, which will make everyone, including Erika fall for him. Hearing that, Tetsu immediately goes into the manhole, but acts like he isn't doing to be famous. Shinpei and the rest manage to escape the shadows. They reach a cave full of corals and wonder how can there be sea creatures there. Ushio tells them that all of them are shadows. Shinpei notices that Ushio isn't well and that her wound haven't healed. Ushio tells him that due to Mio's attack, she suffered data loss and needs to scan the original to regain the data. However, as Ushio is ashes now, he cannot heal her wound. Ushio then erases her arm to stop the pain, while Shinpei wonders if he should loop back and redo things. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] appears with two baby-like shadows, telling them to turn slowly and not do anything strange or Ushio will die. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. Tetsu and Mio then approach, with Tetsu complaining and wanting to go back, but Mio tells him, she will tell Erika how brave he is. They see Shiori behind the metal bars, who then flashes and makes the bars disappear, allowing them to proceed. As the path is now open, Ginjiro still doesn't wish to continue, but Ryunosuke states that at least Mio is human for sure as she has now immunity. Tokiko congratulates them for surviving after trespassing on sacred ground. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] calls Negoro and tells her to use the policeman's, Tadashi Miura's body as today's food at 9 o'clock. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori appears and Ryunosuke explains that if she is alive, then it means she acted like she was killed, but escaped through the cracks on the street to underground, which made Hizuru suspicious about the sewers. Shiori wonders why they came, as she told them they will die the next time they meet it. Shiori reveals that she knows Ryunosuke's full name, which she realized while they talked in Kobayakawa's house. That makes Ryunosuke realize this is Heine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is [[Heine]], who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. ==Characters== *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *Negoro *Tadashi Miura *[[Shide]] *[[Heine]] [[Category:Episodes]] dc9421913d2cb09878b7a998fcab337cb852483e 0 302 996 601 2022-07-18T15:06:19Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Maelstrom | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 5 | image = Episode 05 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Shinji Matsuda | previousEpisode = [[Episode 4]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 6]] |airDate = May 13, 2022 |storyboard = Ayumu Watanabe |adaptation=[[Chapter 16]]<br>[[Chapter 17]]<br>[[Chapter 18]]<br>[[Chapter 19]]<br>[[Chapter 20]]}}'''Maelstrom''' (渦, ''Uzu'') is the 5th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei is saved by a woman who was a passenger on the ferry. She identified herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, a writer whom Shinpei admired, and said that she had come to rescue "Shinpei Ajiro". She also possessed a great deal of knowledge about "shadows". Meanwhile, a massacre by "shadows" was taking place at a summer festival. Shinpei goes to help, but his friends are killed one after another. Soon, the "shadow" swallows up everyone on the island. ==Summary== [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] shoots the shadow Mio in the head. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] recognizes her as the woman from the boat, but then notices that Mio is gone. Mio had turned into a shadow on the ground and slides behind Hizuru. She then comes out of the shadow an attempts to stab Hizuru, however, Hizuru dodges and points the gun at Mio's shadow on the ground and shoots it. Mio is surprised she managed to dodge that and due to the gunshot, she falls apart and disappears. Hizuru explains that she haven't been on the island since she was a kid, and introduces her as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and had come to save Shinpei. Shinpei recognizes the name, but before he can say anything, Hizuru pulls him to the side, stating that a Shadow is coming. They see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] coming and running up the stairs. Shinpei wants to go up, but Hizuru stops him, saying that that's where the Shadows are gathering. Shinpei wonders if she can tell humans from Shadows and Hizuru explains that above the shadow is just a lump of flesh in human shape. He needs to look at their feet, where their true form is the flat shadow cast upon the ground. They hate when someone steps on them and only a Shadow will move to avoid being stepped on. According to Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. Hizuru notes that the shadows number had increased drastically in the last three days, no matter how many she kills and feels they may have a goal. A flash occurs on top of the hill and Shinpei requests Hizuru's help as he wants to save Mio. He runs up the stairs and finds [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]], who starts crying and is then killed by a shadow. The shadow states the hour of nine is approaching and the festival is over, revealing a big pile of dead humans behind it. Shinpei freezes for a moment, but subconsciously starts counting the shadows. He sees shadow [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] who had hit Sou in the head with an axe as he was protecting [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Shadow Sou then proceeds to attack Mio, but Hizuru blows his hands with the shotgun. The main shadow then creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru. Hizuru then sees the gun shooting and she dying and quickly dodges, but gets shot in the arm and guesses that shadow is the parent. The shadow then grabs Shinpei, looking at its right eye and he realizes it must by the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he have it, but states he can control time with it. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. The parent shadow states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei struggles to get to Mio, but before he is able to reach her, she gets consumed, along with the rest of the dead bodies. The parent shadow offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. The parent shadow starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. At Hishigata Hospital, [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] is with a shadow in a wheelchair. Looking at the red light, he comments that she had recovered after consuming thousand humans. Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, saying she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not over and asks her to shoot him in the head, saying that no matter how many times he dies, he will start over. The parent shadow prepares to consume him as well, but Ushio comes and punches him. Hizuru tells Shinpei that if he really can go back, to find her and say his name. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei in the head. Shinpei then finds himself floating in air. He sees the island is engulfed in shadow and a red girl, who then notices him as well. Shinpei then clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. Shinpei returns to July 22nd, after he came to the island and met Mio. Later, Shinpei starts thinking about the situation and what Ushio told him. He realizes that each time, his starting points moves ahead.

I believe it's made quite clear that Tokiko is romantically interested in Mio, especially considering the last episode but I couldn't find much mention of it anywhere even though it's so important for her characters motivations and making sense of her actions. wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Tokiko Hishigata | image = Tokiko Hishigata.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = [[Sou Hishigata]] (older brother)<br/>[[Seido Hishigata]] (father) | affiliation =Diamond Hospital | occupation = | marital = | birthDate =June 25, 2002 | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = | gender = Female | height =150 cm | weight =46 kg | eyes =Blue | portrayedby = Maki Kawase | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Tokiko Hishigata''' (菱形 朱鷺子, ''Hishigata Tokiko'') is [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]]'s younger sister, a first-year high school student. She is intelligent and has the top grades in her grade, but she is physically weak and not good at sports. She and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] have known each other since childhood and are classmates at the same high school. ==Appearance== Tokiko is a young girl with a long red hair braided in a tail. ==Personality== Tokiko seems to be in love with Mio. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Tokiko joins [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] to visit the Summer Festival with them. Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ==6th Loop== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ==7th Loop== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest.

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him.

Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio.

The next day, he misses breakfast and goes at lunch at Kofune's dinner and orders the usual. Mio takes his order and wonder why he didn't came in the morning and Tetsu explains that the whole Kobayakawa family is gone, making him believe that they had a debt and ran in the middle of the night. ===2nd Loop=== On the second time Shinpei arrived on Hitogashima, he goes outside to take some fresh air. There he sees when Tetsu found Mio staring at her house. Tetsu wonders what is she doing, but Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife. She then produces a shadow, which copies Tetsu's appearance and takes on his identity. Mio wants Tetsu's gun, making the Shadow realize, she has not yet killed the real Mio. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, in the evening, Shinpei calls Tetsu and reports a fake fight. As Tetsu goes to check out the fight, he avoids meeting Shadow Mio. The next day, Tetsu gets called to investigate the missing Kobayakawa family. He later goes to Kofune's Diner and sees Shinpei, ready to scold him for the fake fight report, but Shinpei asks him if he wants the usual and Tetsu confirms. Tetsu reveals the Kobayakawa family is gone and that a detective will be coming from mainland this evening. He then gives to Shinpei a phone that Ushio had left him and told him to give to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, a day before she died. ===4th Loop=== Tetsu is on his way to the bar to drink and talk with Erika, but encounters Mio, who wonders if he saw Shiori, but he denies it. The two then see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. Tetsu finds badly injured Ryunosuke who switches to Hizuru, who asks where is Mio. Tetsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. As he takes her, she shoots at the shadow parent and frees, Shinpei, but then gets killed by it. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu. ===6th Loop=== Tetsu along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops.

She asks him if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and he confirms. He wonders why she came back, but as she was replying, he interrupts her, guessing she studied for being a teacher or doctor. Hizuru gets annoyed and tells him she remembered why she couldn't stand him. Masahito then calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name.

Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too.

As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission.

On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger.

He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm.

However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio.

[[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Heine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Heine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Heine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Heine. She explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Heine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Heine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Heine to eat. Heine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Heine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Heine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Heine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Heine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Heine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Heine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Heine. Heine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Heine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Heine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Heine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs.

He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Heine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Heine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Heine. Heine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Heine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Heine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Heine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Heine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Heine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Heine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Heine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Heine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Heine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Heine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Heine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs.

Her family owns the Koba Mart. She was saved from drowning by [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]], however, Ushio ended up drowning herself in that incident. ==Appearance== ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to [[Tetsu Totsumura]], however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Shiori helps with cleaning the beach. After Ushio sees her own shadow, she goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. On 21st, Shiori and other kids are at the beach for a swim. Hamaji makes fun of Shiori for using swim float and finds her lame that she can't swim. Shiori goes to Mio and asks her how to become a good swimmer like her and Mio decides to teach her. Ushio joins them, stating that she will be protecting Shiori, but she wonders what she means. While the group is being distracted by Akari, Shiori is dragged into the water by her Shadow, who starts to take her to the bottom. Ushio and her Shadow come to her help. Shadow Ushio manages to retake Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori still manages to immobilize them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori from them, but is then strangled by her. Shadow Ushio tries to reach the surface with Shiori, but Shadow Shiori catches up to them. She then attacks Shadow Ushio, realizing she is faulty and tries to fix her. However, as Mio and Sou are getting close, Shadow Shiori leaves Shadow Ushio sink to the bottom and erases Shiori, proceeding to act unconscious so that Mio and Sou save her. ==Plot== Shiori end up seeing her own shadow and told [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] that she saw a girl that looks like her. Later Shiori ended up drowning and Ushio came saving her, but ended up dying herself. <!--- first cycle ---> At Ushio's funeral, Shiori was present, but she had stopped talking after the incident. The next day, Kobayakawa family disappeared and later that day, Mio saw Shiori in the woods near the Hiruko Shrine. <!--- third cycle ---> While reliving the day for a third time, during the funeral, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks Shiori if she saw a girl that looked like her. The next day, Shinpei goes to Koba Mart, but as its closed, a neighbour, Shiomi, decides to check on them and enter their place. Shinpei sees a table full of untouched food and the TV running. He then sees two adult-size black strains and strange dents on the floor, figuring they were killed by a shadow. He goes on the second floor looking for Shiori, but Shiori then appears after him causing a flash and wondering why he asked her if she saw a young girl looking like her and if there is something wrong with her. Shinpei realizes that she is a shadow. Shiori then produces a shadow, preparing to kill Shinpei, but Shiomi then comes and the shadow Shiori decides to leave. == Etymology == [[Category:Characters]] [[Category:Females]] 577b138fbb1c6bc7f6732a5a4802e4da9cdcf294 0 505 1034 998 2022-07-24T10:34:34Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Lights, Camera, Action | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 15 | image = Episode 15 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Tetsuo Yajima | previousEpisode = [[Episode 14]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 16]] |airDate = July 22, 2022 |storyboard = Tetsuo Yajima |adaptation = [[Chapter 75]] (p. 11-17)<br>[[Chapter 76]]<br>[[Chapter 77]]<br>[[Chapter 78]]<br>[[Chapter 79]]<br>[[Chapter 80]]<br>[[Chapter 81]]<br>[[Chapter 82]] }}'''Lights, Camera, Action''' (ライツ カメラ アクション, ''Raitsu Kamera Akushon'') is the 15th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei, who had united his friends in the gymnasium, is suddenly plunged into his seventh loop when he is sniped by a "shadow". Heine notices that the starting point of each of Shinpei's loops is gradually shifting, and she modifies her strategy to a method that eliminates Shinpei completely. That night, Shinpei and his friends gather again at Hitogashima Elementary School to defeat Shide. Shide arrives with a large number of "shadows" in tow. The all-out battle between the "shadows" and Shinpei and the others begins. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] loops back to their house a few hours earlier. [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] come and explain that he was shot by a sniper rifle. Shinpei then realizes they got Ginjiro and sending too far outside of Ushio's range was a mistake, as she couldn't detect the shadows. Mio is surprised as they wanted Shinpei alive, but Shinpei explains she must had realized it as well, that each loop starting point moves ahead and he has at best one more loop. Gathering everyone at the elementary school, Shinpei explains that he can loop one more time. There is a limit of how far he can go back in time. The limit has been moving slowly, but with each death it increases its pace. If he dies again, he guesses he will loop back to about 7 PM, which was 20 mins ago. If he then ends up dying fast, the time limit would be past his dying time and what he can return to. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] notes that if he dies, it will be his permanent death and the world will be what Heine sees. [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her in the fourth loop, where she had lethal damage, as they must had fought her before that and likely she read Hizuru's memories. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. After about 20 minutes, Shinpei is waiting for Heine outside. She arrives with [[Shide]] and other shadows. They know he gained allies and wonder if this is a trap, but Shinpei denies it, stating he wants to fight fair and square. They send Mio's shadow, but before she can attack Shinpei, Ushio appears from his wristwatch and takes him and runs away. Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, however it has no effect, making him wonder if Shide in invincible. Ginjiro proceeds to shoot out and kill regular shadows. Shide takes a stone and shoots it at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine orders Asako and other shadows to go after Shinpei and Ushio, while Mio to go after Ginjiro. Shinpei and Ushio pass a corridor, where they leave Hizuru to take care of the following them shadows. Mio's shadow heads towards Ginjiro, but Mio, [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] and [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] face her. Sou misses with his nail gun, but Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. Ryunosuke fights the shadows. Asako's shadow comes, but Heine tells her where to dodge and manages to avoid Ryunosuke's shot. Ryunosuke then foresees Shide shooting Shinpei behind him and blocks the shot with his body. Heine knew that Ryunosuke will cover, which makes him realizes that Heine aslo has the sight, and see movements two seconds into the future. However, Shide fails to kill Ryunosuke as Genjiro shoots at him, allowing Ryunosuke to escape. Heine wonders what is Mio doing and as she looks at her, she sees she is fighting the baby-like shadows. Surprised to see Tokiko, she orders the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her. However, the shadows ignore the order and smash Mio, making Heine realize her connection to the stray shadow has been severed by Ushio. Angry, Heine jumps on Shide, merging him with the remaining shadows and giving him a spider-like look. Mio emerges from the fist of the stray shadow and jumps over it to kill Tokiko, however, real Mio burns her and Sou pins her with his nail gun. Chasing Ushio, Shide and Heine reach the school's sport hall. There Ushio reveals that her hair is above them and turns it into gasoline, which then Shinpei fires up. The shadows start burning, but Heine jumps on the ceiling with Asako. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shoots at her, but as she turns towards him, his gun disappears and appears in Shinpei's hands, who holds Ushio's hair. He then shoots Heine's shadow and injures her. Ushio then grabs Heine's hand, who is in Shiori's form and states she will erase her. Heine asks her not to as she had decided to use Shiori's form and live with her parents forever. Distracted, Shide grabs Ushio and pulls her into the fire, while also shooting Shinpei. Shide tells Ushio that she can't kill him with fire, but he realizes that she and Heine can bring information with them into the next loop. He wonders what will happen if she dies before Shinpei, as he purposely missed Shinpei's vital, so he doesn't die right away. Ushio's necklace appears behind Shide and turns to Ushio, who then punches Shide from behind and pierces his chest. Shide realizes that he grabbed clump of hair with Ushio's dummy information and not actually Ushio. Ushio then starts erasing Shide and as he starts to fall apart a human hand comes out of him. Heine then goes crazy, taking out all the oxygen and putting out the fire. Shinpei is unable to breath and wonder what is going on. The windows then burst open and air enters the hall. Heine takes Shide and runs away. Outside, Heine asks Shide if he is okay and he confirms he will return after some reconstructing. She wonders about Shiori's parents and Shide states that Shinpei is mortally wounded and after he dies in few minutes, the final loop will begin. Shinpei checks on Ushio, who states she is just tired from all the copying she done. She wonders about him as he was shot, but Shinpei reveals he made a bulletproof vest. Ryunosuke records a message to Hizuru. He explains that since the fire was a copy, it only burned what Ushio wanted. The merged shadows inside Shide died instantly and even Shide was slowed.

Heine notices that the starting point of each of Shinpei's loops is gradually shifting, and she modifies her strategy to a method that eliminates Shinpei completely. That night, Shinpei and his friends gather again at Hitogashima Elementary School to defeat Shide. Shide arrives with a large number of "shadows" in tow. The all-out battle between the "shadows" and Shinpei and the others begins. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] loops back to their house a few hours earlier. [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] come and explain that he was shot by a sniper rifle. Shinpei then realizes they got Ginjiro and sending too far outside of Ushio's range was a mistake, as she couldn't detect the shadows. Mio is surprised as they wanted Shinpei alive, but Shinpei explains she must had realized it as well, that each loop starting point moves ahead and he has at best one more loop. Gathering everyone at the elementary school, Shinpei explains that he can loop one more time. There is a limit of how far he can go back in time. The limit has been moving slowly, but with each death it increases its pace. If he dies again, he guesses he will loop back to about 7 PM, which was 20 mins ago. If he then ends up dying fast, the time limit would be past his dying time and what he can return to. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] notes that if he dies, it will be his permanent death and the world will be what Heine sees. [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her in the fourth loop, where she had lethal damage, as they must had fought her before that and likely she read Hizuru's memories. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. After about 20 minutes, Shinpei is waiting for Heine outside. She arrives with [[Shide]] and other shadows. They know he gained allies and wonder if this is a trap, but Shinpei denies it, stating he wants to fight fair and square. They send Mio's shadow, but before she can attack Shinpei, Ushio appears from his wristwatch and takes him and runs away. Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, however it has no effect, making him wonder if Shide in invincible. Ginjiro proceeds to shoot out and kill regular shadows. Shide takes a stone and shoots it at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine orders Asako and other shadows to go after Shinpei and Ushio, while Mio to go after Ginjiro. Shinpei and Ushio pass a corridor, where they leave Hizuru to take care of the following them shadows. Mio's shadow heads towards Ginjiro, but Mio, [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] and [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] face her. Sou misses with his nail gun, but Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. Ryunosuke fights the shadows. Asako's shadow comes, but Heine tells her where to dodge and manages to avoid Ryunosuke's shot. Ryunosuke then foresees Shide shooting Shinpei behind him and blocks the shot with his body. Heine knew that Ryunosuke will cover, which makes him realizes that Heine aslo has the sight, and see movements two seconds into the future. However, Shide fails to kill Ryunosuke as Genjiro shoots at him, allowing Ryunosuke to escape. Heine wonders what is Mio doing and as she looks at her, she sees she is fighting the baby-like shadows. Surprised to see Tokiko, she orders the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her. However, the shadows ignore the order and smash Mio, making Heine realize her connection to the stray shadow has been severed by Ushio. Angry, Heine jumps on Shide, merging him with the remaining shadows and giving him a spider-like look. Mio emerges from the fist of the stray shadow and jumps over it to kill Tokiko, however, real Mio burns her and Sou pins her with his nail gun. Chasing Ushio, Shide and Heine reach the school's sport hall. There Ushio reveals that her hair is above them and turns it into gasoline, which then Shinpei fires up. The shadows start burning, but Heine jumps on the ceiling with Asako. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shoots at her, but as she turns towards him, his gun disappears and appears in Shinpei's hands, who holds Ushio's hair. He then shoots Heine's shadow and injures her. Ushio then grabs Heine's hand, who is in Shiori's form and states she will erase her. Heine asks her not to as she had decided to use Shiori's form and live with her parents forever. Distracted, Shide grabs Ushio and pulls her into the fire, while also shooting Shinpei. Shide tells Ushio that she can't kill him with fire, but he realizes that she and Heine can bring information with them into the next loop. He wonders what will happen if she dies before Shinpei, as he purposely missed Shinpei's vital, so he doesn't die right away. Ushio's necklace appears behind Shide and turns to Ushio, who then punches Shide from behind and pierces his chest. Shide realizes that he grabbed clump of hair with Ushio's dummy information and not actually Ushio. Ushio then starts erasing Shide and as he starts to fall apart a human hand comes out of him. Heine then goes crazy, taking out all the oxygen and putting out the fire. Shinpei is unable to breath and wonder what is going on. The windows then burst open and air enters the hall. Heine takes Shide and runs away. Outside, Heine asks Shide if he is okay and he confirms he will return after some reconstructing. She wonders about Shiori's parents and Shide states that Shinpei is mortally wounded and after he dies in few minutes, the final loop will begin. Shinpei checks on Ushio, who states she is just tired from all the copying she done. She wonders about him as he was shot, but Shinpei reveals he made a bulletproof vest. Ryunosuke records a message to Hizuru. He explains that since the fire was a copy, it only burned what Ushio wanted. The merged shadows inside Shide died instantly and even Shide was slowed. Ushio's hacking also revealed a body inside Shide. Heine scanned and erased the air in the hall, causing a vacuum and the outside air to rush in, allowing them to escape. Ushio is impressed by Heine as she managed to scan the entire air in the hall. But what matter the most is that everyone survived. They group have captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her into an ally. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Heine]] *[[Shide]] *Asako Kobayakawa [[Category:Episodes]] aad5949a7665fdf32d3dfe5af9b5151505840177 6 525 1035 2022-07-24T11:20:20Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 0 515 1044 997 2022-07-24T12:43:02Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Shadow | image = Shadow.png | imagecaption = | aliases = Four-Armed Shadow | relatives = | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = Shadow | gender = | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = | appearsin = | debut = [[Episode 5]] }}'''Shide''' (シデ, ''Shide'') is a mysterious and unique [[Shadow]].

A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them.

Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must by the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he have it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches.

As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Heine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Heine, the shadow appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Heine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as well as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Heine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise.

The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Heine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Heine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside.

Heine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Heine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Heine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Heine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Heine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Heine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape.

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

Tetsu explains that all Kobayakawa family had vanished. In the morning, their Koba Mart wasn't open, so their neighbour, Shiomi's wife, peeked in their house and it was all empty. Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. |-| 2nd Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune & Tetsu Totsumura''': [[Tetsu Totsumura]] sees Shadow Mio standing in front of Kofune's house. Shadow Mio then kills him, stabbing him multiple times with a kitchen knife. She then flashes and creates another Shadow, which transforms into Tetsu. Shadow Tetsu touches the dead Tetsu, causing another flash and disentigrading his body. Shadow Mio informs Shadow Tetsu that he is now Tetsu Totsumura, the police officer. Assuming his role, Mio then asks him to give her his gun, causing Tetsu to realize she still haven't killed the real Mio and taken her place. Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital.

In that moment, Shinpei's phone vibrates, Mio hears it, find Shinpei and stabs him in the neck.

She sees Shinpei coming and grabs him and throws him, stating that she heard he recorded her, but that wouldn't be possible, unless he knew she was coming. Mio asks if the traitor told him, but as the plan is almost complete, she can't let any interference. Shadow Shinpei appears and obtains Shinpei's current memories. Mio then tries to kill Shinpei, but shadow Shinpei stops her, stating they need to think a bit more and if they kill him, he can just loop again. Shadow Shinpei tells Mio to take his phone and to send others to get Ushio. Shinpei wishes to stop him, but Mio breaks his arm, stating he is struggling pointlessly as Mother will soon wake up. As Shinpei keeps struggling, Mio wonders if she should break his leg too, but in that moment, Hizuru appears and shoots her in the head. Mio retreats in her shadow and regenerates.

At the shrine, he captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. '''Shadow Sou Hishigata''': At the shrine, after the shadows started killing the humans there, Shadow Sou attempts to kill Mio with an axe, but Sou uses his body to protect her and dies. Shadow Sou attempts to kill her again, but now Hizuru shoots and blasts his hands. '''Four-Armed Shadow Shide''': ''Check main article [[Shide]].'' |-| 4th Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': Shadow Mio copies [[Alain Kofune]] and creates Shadow Alain, but learns that he also doesn't know where Ushio is. After learning that Shiori was killed, Mio decides to eliminate Shinpei. Instead of staying in front of the house, she enters and gets to his room. She attempts to stab him, but Ushio protects him and takes the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds her. Shinpei opens the curtain and challenges Mio, but she wonders why Ushio protected him. Ushio tells her its because she loves him. Getting angry, Mio starts saying that she died and attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she died, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. '''Shadow Asako, Tetsuo and Shiori Kobayakawa Family''': At the funeral, Asako recognizes Hizuru and tells her that Ushio saved her daughter, Shiori, from drowning. She proceeds to cry about the tragedy, but Hizuru sees that the Kobayawa family are all shadows. Shinpei tells Shiori that what she saw is a shadow and if she sees her again, she must run. A bit later Asako approaches Shinpei and asks him what he means. Seeing they are shadows, Shinpei explains its something he heard from Mio's grandmother when they were kids. Hizuru speculated that Shadow Shiori had drowned Shiori and erased her in the sea, and then acted as she is the one drowning. As she was saved and returned home, she killed and copied Shiori's parents. In the evening, Hizuru visits the Kobayakawa and Asako lets her in as Shiori orders her to. Once inside, Hizuru takes out a hammer and smashes Asako's head. Tetsuo attacks her, but she smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attacks, but Shiori smashes her shadow and kills her. Shiori then acts as a child, standing behind Hizuru and wondering why. Hizuru quickly turns and smashes Shiori's shadow, but Shiori manages to survive and moves away. She then attacks Hizuru and starts strangling her. She comments that she is dangerous as she knows how the kill shadows. However, she wonders if she is even human as she is faster than a shadow. Hizuru tells her to scan her and learn herself and Shiori states she will do, once she kills her. Hizuru then stabs herself with chopsticks and Shiori's shadow that was on Hizuru's body, which surprises Shiori, who then run to the third floor. Hizuru follows and enters Shiori's room. She then feels Shiori's presence and tells her its pointless as if she attempts to scan her, she knows that she won't be able to move for couple of seconds and will then kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and run past Hizuru and escapes through the window. As she goes outside, [[Ginjiro Nezu]] starts shooting her with a nail gun, but she manages to get past him. At a corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles Shiori, who attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro comes and shoots her shadow three times and tells Shinpei to release her as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question Shiori, who confirms that she killed Ushio. Shinpei gets angry and asks why and Shiori explains that the end is coming and she wanted to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and believes to be the true Shiori now and asks Shinpei to become a shadow and her big brother, but Hizuru then kills her. '''Shadow Alain Kofune''': Shadow Alain gets produced by Mio to learn if real Alain knows where Ushio is. Later, at the lunch at the crematorium, Alain goes to the bathroom. Shadow Alain follows him there. He sees that one of the toilet stalls has "maintenance" note and opens the next one, but instead of Alain, he sees Hizuru, who immediately slams a large hammer at Alain's shadow and explains that she calculated 17 different scenarios where Shadow Alain would attack Alain. Shadow Alain wonders what she is doing in the men's bathroom, but his face gets smashed and Shadow Alain dies from the hammer hit. '''Shadow Ushio Kofune''': ''Check main article [[Ushio Kofune]].'' '''Baby-like Shadows''': In an old tunnel under the old clinic, Shinpei, Ushio and Sou encounter a baby-like shadow, who is missing top half of its head and is deaf and blind. The shadow is feeding on rats, but managed to smell them. The shadow avoids Shinpei, but is then hit by Sou's bat. To soften the attack, it transforms to its flat form and then back to its baby form and jumps on Sou. As its about to kill him, Shinpei shoots it with a nailgun, making it unable to move. Sou then throws it towards Ushio, who kills the shadow. Following the tunnel, Sou, Shinpei and Ushio, encounter more baby-like shadows in a natural cave. The three of them, manage to fight them off and escape. '''Four-Armed Shadow Shide''': ''Check main article [[Shide]].'' '''Shadow Negoro''': Shadow Negoro helps out [[Seido Hishigata]] as he prepares a body for Heine to eat.

When Shinpei and Shadow Ushio retake Ushio's body, Heine gets angry they stole her food and buffs up Negoro, making her wild and muscular.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

Under such circumstances, Mio proposed to bring her own "shadow" into the group. Through the power of Ushio, they succeeded in bringing in Mio's "shadow". Using Mio's "shadow" and Tokiko's story as clues, the group heads for the Hishigata Clinic. However, the house was empty and all manner of things were missing. When they proceeded to the hallway leading to the Hiruko Cave inside the clinic, they find the parents of Sou and Tokiko. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] questions shadow [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] where and how she was created. Shadow Mio explains that she was copied yesterday by [[Heine]] and created in a cave. She wanted to kill Mio and replace Mio, and felt that sending her to the hospital, will make it easy for her to kill as doctor Hishigata is on their side. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] didn't knew they would copy Mio, but shadow Mio assures her she has no desire to kill Mio now and she was copied to try to find Ushio. Shadow Mio explains there are two types of copying, transformation - replicating something with your body and childbirth - splitting off a part of your body to create a new shadow. The "children" can only birth one human shadow each, while Heine can give birth multiple times. The grand-children created by children cannot give birth, however all shadows can transform repeatedly. Whether is childbirth or transformation, they need to kill the original human within a week or the shadows will turn into mud. Tokiko states they were helping Heine, but it seems she had a different plan. As Dr. Hishigata seems to know her plan, Sou reveals that he has a meeting with him tonight at 10, and Shinpei decides they to speak with him. Shinpei orders Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shadow Mio wonders if he is scared of her and Shinpei confirms, as she had killed him many times. Shadow Mio explains she haven't killed anyone yet and that was different timelines. Shadow Mio then asks him if he got a girlfriend in Tokyo, but Shinpei denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. They go to Hishigata Clinic and Sou and Tokiko notice that all their items and furniture are erased by shadows. Hizuru notes that it seems they wanted to erase something, but didn't know where it was. Seido and their mother is missing and Sou guesses its Seido's fault. Ushio senses a shadow in the clinic and they go after her. They find traces of a fight and the elevator stuck on basement floor. Heading to the basement, they see Sou mother's wheelchair had been blocking the elevator. They see a shadow heading into the morgue, but as they go, its empty. Tokiko then reveals there is a secret door to another morgue, but Ushio's body is missing. They find a hallway and Tokiko explains it leads to Hiruko's cave and they are using it to bring dead bodies to her. They feel a shadows ahead and proceed. Eventually they find Sou's mother chocking Seido. Ushio rushes in and hacks Sou's mother, freeing her from Heine's control. However, Seido isn't breathing and Tokiko starts giving him first aid. After few moments, Sou takes over, not wanting to let him go before he can answer for everything. Moments later, Seido starts breathing again and asks about Chitose, Sou's mother, and Ushio explains she broke her connection with Heine. Seido guesses since they have reached this far, Heine probably thought he will tell them everything and decided to kill him. Tokiko tells him to not hide anything anymore as they can simply copy him. Seido asks Tokiko to kill them all, as that way Heine will trust him again. However, Tokiko states that Heine lied to them and won't keep her promise. Angry, Seido manages to take the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko stops him, revealing to be Shadow Ushio. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei if he trust her now and Shinpei confirms, stating she can copy him and see if she doesn't believe him, however Shadow Mio refuses, not wanting to see whats in his heart. Sou is angry at his father and tells Mio to copy him. Mio attempts, but reveals she can't as he has immunity. Seido is surprised she can't make a copy of him. Mio reveals that once a copy of him was made and then died, which made him gain immunity and he can't be copied again. Realizing he can't become a shadow, Seido breaks down, wondering why he did all of this. They notice Negoro with Ushio's body. She tells Seido that she has a message from Shide, which thanks the Hishigata family for serving them so well, but this is the end. Negoro reveals that Shide had a message for Shinpei too, Shide is surprised that Shinpei survived and its annoying, but yet powerless to stop them and all will be over in two days. Ushio attempts to chase Negoro, but Shinpei stops her, explaining that they are trying to lure them and was provoking them. Shinpei asks Seido if there is any reason now for him to stay silent and he asks him to bring the real Tokiko. After Chitose wakes up, Ushio shows her all of her memories until now, like she did to Seido. Chitose had no idea that she was a shadow or how she was created. Seido knows they are trying to stop the ritual, but wonders if killing Heine is the right thing, since if she died, all shadows will die. Ushio is fine with that, stating she should have died two days ago and this is just bonus time and is happy to use this time to save everyone. Seido reveals that Heine tries to return to her hometown in the deep ocean, where creatures of this world cannot reach it, and she intended to bring shadows with her, the family she hand-picked. Seido and Chitose were supposed to become shadows and live there forever, along with Tokiko and Sou. Sou then realizes that this is why, Seido didn't care if they will die or not. Chitose calls Seido selfish and stupid, but thanks him for saving her. However, they need to end this. Seido states there is no reason for him to live if she dies, but Chitose states he has their children. She states Shinpei is correct and he still can make things right. Seido then opens a safe, he had Tokiko bury. Inside are patient records and anyone he diagnosed with Capgras delusions, actually ended up being food for Heine. Shinpei's parents are on the list too. Shinpei is surprised as his mother and father boat sank during an expedition. Seido reveals that they discovered the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public, so they were killed and made to look like an accident. Shide had killed them and Seido replaced their bodies and gave them to Heine. Shinpei wonders if Seido knows Shide's real identity and Seido confirms. Seido gives a photo to Shinpei and states Shide is her guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. ==Characters== *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *Chitose Hishigata *Negoro [[Category:Episodes]] bd9dfde0824ca994fa4c15dd69875519d77ba711 1086 1078 2022-07-30T19:50:03Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Original | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 16 | image = Episode 16 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Yoshitsugu Kimura | previousEpisode = [[Episode 15]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 17]] |airDate = July 29, 2022 |storyboard = Kenji Maeba |adaptation = [[Chapter 83]] (p. 1-6, 8-11, 13-17)<br>[[Chapter 84]] (p. 4-14)<br>[[Chapter 85]]<br>[[Chapter 86]]<br>[[Chapter 87]]<br>[[Chapter 88]] }}'''Original''' (オリジナル, ''Orijinaru'') is the 16th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei and his group survived the total attack by the "shadows" led by Shide. Under such circumstances, Mio proposed to bring her own "shadow" into the group. Through the power of Ushio, they succeeded in bringing in Mio's "shadow". Using Mio's "shadow" and Tokiko's story as clues, the group heads for the Hishigata Clinic. However, the house was empty and all manner of things were missing. When they proceeded to the hallway leading to the Hiruko Cave inside the clinic, they find the parents of Sou and Tokiko. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] questions shadow [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] where and how she was created. Shadow Mio explains that she was copied yesterday by [[Heine]] and created in a cave. She wanted to kill Mio and replace Mio, and felt that sending her to the hospital, will make it easy for her to kill as doctor Hishigata is on their side. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] didn't knew they would copy Mio, but shadow Mio assures her she has no desire to kill Mio now and she was copied to try to find Ushio. Shadow Mio explains there are two types of copying, transformation - replicating something with your body and childbirth - splitting off a part of your body to create a new shadow. The "children" can only birth one human shadow each, while Heine can give birth multiple times. The grand-children created by children cannot give birth, however all shadows can transform repeatedly. Whether is childbirth or transformation, they need to kill the original human within a week or the shadows will turn into mud. Tokiko states they were helping Heine, but it seems she had a different plan. As Dr. Hishigata seems to know her plan, Sou reveals that he has a meeting with him tonight at 10, and Shinpei decides they to speak with him. Shinpei orders Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shadow Mio wonders if he is scared of her and Shinpei confirms, as she had killed him many times. Shadow Mio explains she haven't killed anyone yet and that was different timelines. Shadow Mio then asks him if he got a girlfriend in Tokyo, but Shinpei denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. They go to Hishigata Clinic and Sou and Tokiko notice that all their items and furniture are erased by shadows. Hizuru notes that it seems they wanted to erase something, but didn't know where it was. Seido and their mother is missing and Sou guesses its Seido's fault. Ushio senses a shadow in the clinic and they go after her. They find traces of a fight and the elevator stuck on basement floor. Heading to the basement, they see Sou mother's wheelchair had been blocking the elevator. They see a shadow heading into the morgue, but as they go, its empty. Tokiko then reveals there is a secret door to another morgue, but Ushio's body is missing. They find a hallway and Tokiko explains it leads to Hiruko's cave and they are using it to bring dead bodies to her. They feel a shadows ahead and proceed. Eventually they find Sou's mother chocking Seido. Ushio rushes in and hacks Sou's mother, freeing her from Heine's control. However, Seido isn't breathing and Tokiko starts giving him first aid. After few moments, Sou takes over, not wanting to let him go before he can answer for everything. Moments later, Seido starts breathing again and asks about Chitose, Sou's mother, and Ushio explains she broke her connection with Heine. Seido guesses since they have reached this far, Heine probably thought he will tell them everything and decided to kill him. Tokiko tells him to not hide anything anymore as they can simply copy him. Seido asks Tokiko to kill them all, as that way Heine will trust him again. However, Tokiko states that Heine lied to them and won't keep her promise. Angry, Seido manages to take the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko stops him, revealing to be Shadow Ushio. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei if he trust her now and Shinpei confirms, stating she can copy him and see if she doesn't believe him, however Shadow Mio refuses, not wanting to see whats in his heart. Sou is angry at his father and tells Mio to copy him. Mio attempts, but reveals she can't as he has immunity. Seido is surprised she can't make a copy of him. Mio reveals that once a copy of him was made and then died, which made him gain immunity and he can't be copied again. Realizing he can't become a shadow, Seido breaks down, wondering why he did all of this. They notice Negoro with Ushio's body. She tells Seido that she has a message from Shide, which thanks the Hishigata family for serving them so well, but this is the end. Negoro reveals that Shide had a message for Shinpei too, Shide is surprised that Shinpei survived and its annoying, but yet powerless to stop them and all will be over in two days. Ushio attempts to chase Negoro, but Shinpei stops her, explaining that they are trying to lure them and was provoking them. Shinpei asks Seido if there is any reason now for him to stay silent and he asks him to bring the real Tokiko. After Chitose wakes up, Ushio shows her all of her memories until now, like she did to Seido. Chitose had no idea that she was a shadow or how she was created. Seido knows they are trying to stop the ritual, but wonders if killing Heine is the right thing, since if she died, all shadows will die. Ushio is fine with that, stating she should have died two days ago and this is just bonus time and is happy to use this time to save everyone. Seido reveals that Heine tries to return to her hometown in the deep ocean, where creatures of this world cannot reach it, and she intended to bring shadows with her, the family she hand-picked. Seido and Chitose were supposed to become shadows and live there forever, along with Tokiko and Sou. Sou then realizes that this is why, Seido didn't care if they will die or not. Chitose calls Seido selfish and stupid, but thanks him for saving her. However, they need to end this. Seido states there is no reason for him to live if she dies, but Chitose states he has their children. She states Shinpei is correct and he still can make things right. Seido then opens a safe, he had Tokiko bury. Inside are patient records and anyone he diagnosed with Capgras delusions, actually ended up being food for Heine. Shinpei's parents are on the list too. Shinpei is surprised as his mother and father boat sank during an expedition. Seido reveals that they discovered the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public, so they were killed and made to look like an accident. Shide had killed them and Seido replaced their bodies and gave them to Heine. Shinpei wonders if Seido knows Shide's real identity and Seido confirms. Seido gives a photo to Shinpei and states Shide is her guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. ==Characters== *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *Chitose Hishigata *Negoro [[Category:Episodes]] 9daefec691c1f61f735898d083780a59654358d2 6 535 1081 2022-07-30T18:54:16Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 0 221 1083 1052 2022-07-30T19:44:39Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Shinpei Ajiro | image = Shinpei Ajiro.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = Akemi Ajiro (mother, deceased)<br/>Toru Ajiro (father, deceased)<br/>[[Alain Kofune]] (adoptive parent) | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = Human | gender = Male | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = Natsuki Hanae | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Shinpei Ajiro''' (網代 慎平, ''Ajiro Shinpei'') is a 17-year-old boy who returned to his hometown of Hitogashima for the first time in two years to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, [[Ushio Kofune]]. Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

He is the eldest son of Hishigata Clinic, the only hospital on Hitogashima, and is studying to become a doctor. He has a strong sense of justice and regrets that he was present at the scene of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s maritime accident but was unable to prevent it. He has confessed his feelings to [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] twice in the past and was rejected. ==Appearance== Sou is a young man with messy brown hair and brown eyes. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== At [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Sou hugs Shinpei and apologizes for not being able to help her. He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ===3rd Loop=== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ===4th Loop=== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. ===6th Loop=== Sou along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Sou agrees. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko gives him first aid and then Sou takes over, not wanting him to die before answering for what he did. Seido awakens, but wants Tokiko to kill them, so that Heine can gain his trust again. As Tokiko refuses, because the shadows had betrayed them, Seido takes the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko turns into Shadow Mio and stops him. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything. Heine wanted to return to her world, and Seido, Chitose, Sou and Tokiko would going her as shadows> Seido also reveals that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori.

Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since Seido Hishigata may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. The shadows are capable of two types of copying: transformation and childbirth. When transforming, they replicate something with their body. While with childbirth, they split off part of their body to create a new shadow. Heine can give childbirth many times, but the children she makes can only give birth to one human shadow, and those grand-children cannot give birth, however, all shadows can transform repeatedly. Whether is childbirth or transformation, they need to erase the original human within a week or the shadows will turn into mud and vanish. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

Assuming his role, Mio then asks him to give her his gun, causing Tetsu to realize she still haven't killed the real Mio and taken her place. Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital. Taking the gun, Shadow Mio comments that she can't go in and kill her now or everyone will hear the gunshot and will be just scouting for today. In that moment, Shinpei's phone vibrates, Mio hears it, find Shinpei and stabs him in the neck.

At the shrine, he captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast.

Once inside, Hizuru takes out a hammer and smashes Asako's head. Tetsuo attacks her, but she smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attacks, but Shiori smashes her shadow and kills her.

Heine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Heine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Heine to eat. Heine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Heine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Heine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Heine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Heine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Heine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Heine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Heine. Heine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Heine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Heine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Heine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Heine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Heine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Heine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Heine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Heine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Heine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Heine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Heine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows.

The next morning, Shinpei and Ushio attempt to exterminate the "shadows" lurking on the island, following trails of the "shadows". They get attacked by a "shadow," but Shinpei and his friends save the children who were in danger. Shinpei then heads for Hiruko-sama - the Nitto Shrine. ==Summary== [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] speaks with [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] and wonders why [[Heine]] had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. Outside the house, Shadow [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio. Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] shows [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], Chitose's ashes, as he couldn't give her body to Heine to eat. He reveals that she died from a heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that is days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believe it will be too much for Sou to bear all this and he values life, and that's why he chose his sister as successor. Meanwhile, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] is with [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] and shares that he don't think of Seido as a bad guy as he was forced in a situation and wanted to save his family. Tokiko notes that he ended up helping a mass murderer, but Shinpei isn't sure he would have done something different if he was on his place. Tokiko wonders when was the last time Shinpei slept as he has bags under his eyes. As Shinpei reveals he has been awake since the beginning, Tokiko suggest to rest this night and relax as everyone is there. At night, [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. In the morning, Shinpei sees that everyone survived until 23rd. As there is battle upcoming, they have decided to lower the number of shadows. Hizuru spotted some shadows at the funeral and her team will deal with the Kogaitos, while the rest of team Ushio will investigate the Hitobuchis. Ushio's team then goes to the Kofune's restaurant, where they meet [[Alain Kofune|Alain]], who is also fine. Shinpei tells Mio to stay and help Alain. Shadow Mio should stay and protect Mio and Sou should stay at the restaurant too. Mio reveals she found some of Ushio's hair in the bathroom and gives it to shadow Ushio, so that she can regenerate a bit. Ushio thanks her and manages to regenerate her hair. As Shinpei and Ushio are about to leave, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk with him after he is back. At the Hitobuchis house, Shinpei and Ushio see black stains and guess that they were all erased. Shinpei recalls that Kanae Hitobuchi is an old teacher, who taught most of the kids on the island and they call her Bucchi. He and Ushio then recall a day when they were young and he walked behind Ushio. Two boys appear and mock Ushio for her golden hair and blue eyes, calling her a foreigner. Ushio quickly beat them, but Bucchi came and stopped Ushio. Ushio states that they started it and they bully the weak, but she ain't weak. Bucchi agrees,but tells her that violence isn't the answer, and those who are truly strong don't hurt others. Her hands are made to hit others, but to hold hands, which Ushio finds as gross. After recalling how kind Bucchi was, the two follow a shadow trail into the mountain. They hear kids cry and runs towards them. They see three kids facing shadow Bucchi with two shadows who copied two of the kids. Ushio rushes in and saves one of the kids, while killing the two kid shadows, but Bucchi moves behind the other kids, but Shinpei shoots her. As the shadows dies, she notes that Shinpei had grew up and wonders if he is doing well. Shinpei and Ushio then explain to the kids that Ushio is a good shadow and they are on a secret mission and must not tell the adults. Proceeding, the two find fresh blood, guessing it was Bucchi's work. Ushio scans it and realizes its belong to someone from Osaka, a 34 years old woman. Guessing she is a tourist and having no black stains, they believe she has been taken away for Heine to eat. Unusual looking Ushio then states that Shiori and Heine original bodies are gone and no matter how many humans Heine eats, she will never recover. Ushio then comes to her sense and wonders if she said anything. Shinpei gets a call from Hizuru's team and they meet at Kofune's restaurant to exchange information. As they are unable to find shadows, they guess that they may be hiding, afraid of Ushio's hack and preparing for the festival. Shinpei then states that its maybe time to meet with [[Masahito Karikiri]]. Shinpei then goes to the Hiruko shrine, where he finds Masahito and request to talk with him and Masahito invites him inside. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *Kaoru Nezu *Negoro *[[Shide]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *Kanae Hitobuchi *Hamaji *Todai *[[Masahito Karikiri]] [[Category:Episodes]] 47416a31ed60f8e29cb76bd348bc2d861b1cb0d8 1149 1112 2022-08-13T01:10:28Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Decision | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 17 | image = Episode 17 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Noriko Tajiri | previousEpisode = [[Episode 16]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 18]] |airDate = August 5, 2022 |storyboard = Ryūshi Tokunaga |adaptation = [[Chapter 89]] (p. 1, 3-18)<br>[[Chapter 90]]<br>[[Chapter 91]] (p. 1-5, 10-18)<br>[[Chapter 92]] (p. 1-4, 6-16, 24)<br>[[Chapter 93]] (p. 2-3, 5-12, 14-27)<br>[[Chapter 94]] (p. 1) }}'''Decision''' (決断, ''Ketsudan'') is the 17th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== After hearing about the true identity of the "Shide" from Seido Hishigata, the father of Sou and director of the Hishigata Clinic, the group takes a brief rest at the clinic.

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses.

Seeing that they had gotten to this point, Seido realizes that's why Heine wanted to kill him: she was afraid he would tell them everything. He orders Tokiko to kill them, so he could regain Heine's trust, but Tokiko refuses, acknowledging that the shadows betrayed them. Enraged, Seido manages to take the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He turns to Ushio, but Tokiko then stops him, revealing she was actually Shadow Mio. Seido refuses to talk, Shadow Mio attempts to scan him but learns that he is immune. Negoro then shows up with Ushio's body and gives Seido a message from Shide, thanking the Hishigata family for all their help, but this is the end. Realizing he is immune and can't achieve his goal, Seido decides to talk. He reveals that Heine wants to return to her world, which only shadows can reach and he was supposed to join her with his wife Chitose, Tokiko and Sou. Chitose calls him an idiot, but thanks him for saving her, and tells him he can still do the right thing. Seido calls Tokiko to dig up a safe he had given her, containing a list of patients who had died and had been fed to Heine. Including Shinpei's parents. Seido also shows a photo, revealing that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to: Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido reveals Chitose's ashes to Sou, confessing that he couldn't give her body to Heine for food. He reveals that she died from heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that was days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believed it would be too much for Sou to bear and that's why he chose his sister as successor. == Etymology == * The name '''Seido''' means "bronze" (青銅). * Seido's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

He is the eldest son of Hishigata Clinic, the only hospital on Hitogashima, and is studying to become a doctor. He has a strong sense of justice and regrets that he was present at the scene of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s maritime accident but was unable to prevent it. He has confessed his feelings to [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] twice in the past and was rejected. ==Appearance== Sou is a young man with messy brown hair and brown eyes. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== At [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Sou hugs Shinpei and apologizes for not being able to help her. He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ===3rd Loop=== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ===4th Loop=== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. ===6th Loop=== Sou along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Sou agrees. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko gives him first aid and then Sou takes over, not wanting him to die before answering for what he did. Seido awakens, but wants Tokiko to kill them, so that Heine can gain his trust again. As Tokiko refuses, because the shadows had betrayed them, Seido takes the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko turns into Shadow Mio and stops him. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything. Heine wanted to return to her world, and Seido, Chitose, Sou and Tokiko would going her as shadows> Seido also reveals that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido shows Sou, Chitose's ashes, as he couldn't give her body to Heine to eat. He reveals that she died from a heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that is days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believe it will be too much for Sou to bear all this and he values life, and that's why he chose his sister as successor. Next day, the group is split in two teams and Sou is left with Mio and Shadow Mio to wait at the Kofune restaurant. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since Seido Hishigata may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Later, when the group finds Seido and teams up with him, outside the house, Shadow Mio talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio. Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. The next day, when Shinpei was leaving with Ushio to find and kill shadows, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk about when he returns. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Shinpei is a young man with medium long black hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinepi relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinepi then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies as they both are the same. Following that Shinepi confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as he has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isnt a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isnt a shadow niether merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is known for his calm and collected persona, but is also very protective and determined to keep his loved ones safe. He is also known to be pretty clever and strategic, coming up with ideas to protect Mio. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinepi relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinepi then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies as they both are the same. Following that Shinepi confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as he has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isnt a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isnt a shadow niether merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is known for his calm and collected persona, but is also very protective and determined to keep his loved ones safe. He is also known to be pretty clever and strategic as well. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinepi relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinepi then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies as they both are the same. Following that Shinepi confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as he has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isnt a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isnt a shadow niether merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinepi relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinepi then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies as they both are the same. Following that Shinepi confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as he has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isnt a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isnt a shadow niether merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinepi relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinepi then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinepi confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isnt a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isnt a shadow niether merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinepi that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinepi responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didnt require anything to catch fish. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinepi's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinepi by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinepi calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinepi hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinepi that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinepi's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didnt seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinepi rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinepi in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinepi is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinepi loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinepi cries and growls in agony. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinepi tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinepi relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinepi then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinepi confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isnt a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isnt a shadow niether merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinepi that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinepi responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didnt require anything to catch fish. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinepi's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinepi by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinepi calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinepi hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinepi that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinepi's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didnt seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinepi rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinepi in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinepi is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinepi loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinepi cries and growls in agony. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue.

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. The shadows are capable of two types of copying: transformation and childbirth. When transforming, they replicate something with their body. While with childbirth, they split off part of their body to create a new shadow. Heine can give childbirth many times, but the children she makes can only give birth to one human shadow, and those grand-children cannot give birth, however, all shadows can transform repeatedly.

Ushio, not wanting Shinpei to become a murderer, steps in and sliced the top half of Shide's head off. Relieved for a moment, they are too late to realize, that this Shide was a clone, and the real one, still burned from the injuries sustained at the gym, slices Ushio in half and impales Shinpei on a tree with his naginata. Hizuru and Tokiko are too late to step in, and Shinpei dies, looping back to when he and Ushio saved the kids from the Shadow of their teacher, but this time without Ushio.

'''Meeting''' (対面, ''Taimen'') is the 18th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei arrives at Nitto Shrine and visits Masahito, the chief priest. Shinpei shows Masahito a photo from 70 years ago, in which Masahito looks exactly the same as he does today. Shinpei questions him about the fact that he is the first director of the Hishigata Clinic, Hishigata Shidehiko, or "Shide". Shinpei eventually learns that he is also the one who killed his parents, and tries to defeat Shide. However, as he hesitates to kill Masahito, who is a human being and not a "shadow," he begins to feel a certain discomfort with Masahito's appearance. ==Summary== [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] tells the legend of Hiruko. In 1732, during the Kyoho famine, many of the Hitogashima islanders died from starvation. A huge whale drifted ashore onto Omoto beach, and the islanders gathered to eat it, believing to be a blessing from God. As a girl approached the whale, its body glowed with a dazzling bright light and took the appearance of the girl, and then proceeds to devour the girl. Fearing divine punishment, the islanders started to worship the girl as Hiruko, a goddess. While waiting for [[Masahito Karikiri|Masahito]] to bring drinks, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] confirms with [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] that there are no shadows nearby and Masahito isn't a shadow. Masahito comes and wonders if its hotter in Tokyo and Shinpei states its the same, however, he mentions that Masahito told him he visited Tokyo last year for a game event. Masahito then recalls he did and they talk about what games Masahito likes. Shinpei guesses that games are like the novels for Shinpei and tells him about Swamp Man by Nagumo Ryunosuke, where the main character gets copied and switched and no one realizes it. Since the copy is a perfect reproduction of the original, Masahito agrees with Shinpei that the copy and original would be the same, and explains how normally cells are always growing and replacing older cells. Shinpei reveals he also learned the legend of Hiruko. He planned to asks Masahito, but Hizuru told him about it. Shinpei states you can look at Hiruko as a being from space and while it was adrift it probably copied and transformed into other things nearby. It likely arrived on Earth as a meteorite and fell into the ocean. It started copying things from the ocean and eventually transformed into a whale 300 years ago and somehow washed ashore on this island. As the villagers gathered, a girl approached the whale and it copied the girl, starting the shadow sickness. Masahito wonders if he is trying to say the shadows are real and Shinpei confirms, stating they killed Ushio and his family, and will kill everyone at the festival tomorrow. Masahito laughs, but Shinpei tells him, he knows this is the truth as he witnessed it and tosses photos at Masahito. Shinpei wonders what is Masahito doing on a 70-years-old picture and should he call him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei then points his gun at Masahito and states he is Shide. Masahito recalls how the shadow copied Haine and then ate her at the beach. He asks what else had Doctor Hishigata told Shinpei, but Shinpei states he is the one asking the questions and tells him to look at the other picture, which Doctor Hishigata's father took 40 years ago. On the picture, its Haine with Masahito and a baby. Shinpei states that Masahito ain't a shadow, but is no mere human. During the fourth loop, when Shinpei found the Hiruko statue at the old Hishigata clinic, he started to suspect there is a connection between the Hishigata Clinic and the Hito Shrine. During the fifth loop, Hizuru guessed that Masahito could be the four-armed shadow, and believes Shinpei and Ushio are already suspecting it. They confirm, with Ushio explaining that if Haine is the Shadows Mother, then the dedicated shrine to her is suspicious. Hizuru wonders why the four-armed shadow would hide its face, unless its a human and can't copy. Shinpei saw him only printing and Hizuru guesses that it may be a human wearing the black mud that creates shadows like armor. Ginjiro states that if he is hidings his face, it means its someone they know and doesn't want to be recognized. During the sixth loop, after cancelling the attack on Kobayakawa's family, Hizuru is sure that the four-armed is Masahito as it irritates her the same way as Masahito. Since Ginjiro couldn't pin him, it means he is likely indeed human. Hizuru thinks they can easily kill him by going to the shrine, but Shinpei wants more concrete proofs and states they can negotiate with him if they corner him. During the seventh loop, Shide received a burn on its left arm. Seido shows the 40 year old picture to Shinpei and reveals that Shidehiko's father started acting as a doctor, and originally Hishigata and Karikiri's were originally one family. Eventually Shidehiko produced a child with Haine, which wasn't a shadow, but birthed from Haine's flesh and blood body. Shidehiko started calling himself husband of a god and took Haine's surname, Karikiri. The Karikiris became servants of God, while the Hishigata a family of doctors. The child grew to be splitting image of Shidehiko, Haine's natural birth was a clone of its father. Seeing that Shidehiko made Haine copy his personality and memories, and transfer them into the child, thus restoring his youth. Shidehiko then continued being reborn over and over by Haine, allowing him to live for 300 years. Shinpei calls Masahito a human-shadow hybrid. Masahito notes its unfair he can loop and had reached this point for just a day. Masahito recalls 1732 and the famine. However, he explains that the part where they fed her humans and Haine blessed them with bounties of fish is untrue. In reality, hundreds of islanders were turned into shadows and as the shadows didn't need to eat, that managed to save the remaining fishermen. Ushio gets angry and asks him why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito reveals they found Hiruko's cave and wanted to go public, but now he wonders if they would have been happier if he made them into shadows. Shinpei is angry, but hold himself from killing Masahito. He asks him why is he serving Haine as he can't go to her home with her, however Masahito states its his duty to see his mother's wish fulfilled. Ushio tells Shinpei to kill him, but Shinpei feels something isn't right. Masahito shows his left arm and states he is probably wondering why he isn't injured. Ushio, unable to stand it anymore, comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. Ushio explains she did it as Shinpei couldn't, since he was seeing him as a human. Ushio then calls the rest, informing them that she killed Shide, in that moment, another Masahito appears and stabs Ushio's shadow and slashes her with a spear. Shinpei loses it and shoots at Masahito three times. As black mud surrounds Masahito turning him to Shide, he tells Shinpei he needed to be a bit more objective. Shide then throws the spear at Shinpei and hits him in the chest. As Shinpei dies, he recalls how he wanted to go alone and hear from Shide himself why he killed his parents and that he doesn't mind dying one more time. Eventually they agree with Ushio accompanying him. They also agree on a signal for help, which would be a gunshot, but at first he will shoot two times at Masahito's shadow to confirm he isn't a shadow. Hearing the gunshot, everyone rushes in, but Shinpei flies out of the shrine and gets pinned to a tree. Shide then notes that with Ushio's death, he can loop only with despair and regret now. Shinpei then awakens after he and Ushio saved the kids from Bucchi. In that moment, the kids start to wonder where Ushio went. Knowing she died, Shinpei starts to cry. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Shide]] [[Category:Episodes]] 9fb316128f6d93c3e40ae555940938e389eaf799 6 545 1170 1132 2022-08-13T21:14:39Z Unok 3544775 Unok uploaded a new version of [[File:Episode 18 Title.png]] wikitext text/x-wiki Title image of the 18th episode 8bacad011bde956fefc648e1ce3104e0714d26e0 0 221 1171 1154 2022-08-13T21:19:18Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Shinpei Ajiro | image = Shinpei Ajiro.png | imagecaption = | aliases =Shin-chan (by Mio Kofune) Shinpei <br/>Shinpei-kun | relatives = Akemi Ajiro (mother, deceased)<br/>Toru Ajiro (father, deceased)<br/>[[Alain Kofune]] (adoptive parent) <br/>[[Mio Kofune]] (childhood friend) <br/>[[Ushio Kofune]] (childhood friend/ love interest) | affiliation =High school | occupation =Student | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = Human | gender = Male | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = Natsuki Hanae | appearsin = | debut = |age=17}}'''Shinpei Ajiro''' (網代 慎平, ''Ajiro Shinpei'') is a 17-year-old boy who returned to his hometown of Hitogashima for the first time in two years to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, [[Ushio Kofune]]. Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels.

Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

She is intelligent and has the top grades in her grade, but she is physically weak and not good at sports. She and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] have known each other since childhood and are classmates at the same high school. ==Appearance== Tokiko is a young girl with a long red hair braided in a tail. ==Personality== Tokiko seems to be in love with Mio. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Tokiko joins [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] to visit the Summer Festival with them. Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Tokiko remains in the car with Ginjiro and Mio. She had let Shadow Mio copy her and join the group. Tokiko also wanted Shadow Mio to learn everything about her and her feelings. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

He wears glasses and is usually in his priest uniform. ==Personality== ==Plot== Masahito performs the funeral of [[Ushio Kofune]] and calls [[Shinpei Ajiro]] to help with the procession. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, at the funeral, Masahito recognizes [[Hizuru Minakata]], even though its been fourteen years. She asks him if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and he confirms. He wonders why she came back, but as she was replying, he interrupts her, guessing she studied for being a teacher or doctor. Hizuru gets annoyed and tells him she remembered why she couldn't stand him. Masahito then calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. At the funeral crematorium, Shinpei asks him if he knows about the shadow sickness and Masahito confirms as it was his grandfather who named it. As he describes the woman on the boat, Masahito guesses he is talking about Hizuru. === 7th Loop === Shinpei goes to speak with Masahito at the shrine. They talk about video games and then Shinpei tells him about the Swamp Man novel, where the protagonist gets replaced by a perfect copy and no one notices. He then retells the Hiruko legend and how the shadow sickness started with the whale that washed ashore, turning to a girl and ate it. Masahito laughs at Shinpei for thinking the shadows are real, but Shinpei throws pictures at him, telling him that he very well knows its true as Masahito was there. Masahito sees a 70 years old picture with him on it, and a 40 years old picture with him, Haine and their child. Shinpei wonders if he should call him Shidehiko Hishigata and that he is a human-shadow hybrid. Masahito then explains that during the famine in 1732, they turned hundred of the islanders into shadows and that way they needed less food to survive, which he believes saved the island. Ushio gets angry and asks him about Shinpei's parents. Masahito then explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public, so he had to kill them, but wonders if they would have been happier if he made them shadows. Masahito notes that Shinpei probably wonders why his arm isn't injured. Ushio unable to take it anymore, shows up and kills Masahito. Moments later, another Masahito who turns into [[Shide]] comes out and kills both Ushio and Shinpei. == Etymology == * The name '''Masahito''' means "real, genuine" (真) ('''ma'''), "sand, grit" (砂) ('''sa''') and "person" (人) ('''hito'''). * Masahito's surname '''Karikiri''' means "goose/wild goose" (雁) ('''kari''') and "cut/cutoff/off, be sharp, ardent, eager, acute, keen" (切) ('''kiri''').

Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after Shinpei and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot.

Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Heine, the shadow appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Heine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as well as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Heine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end.

He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Heine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who pins him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Heine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Heine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Heine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Heine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Heine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Heine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Heine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Heine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Heine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend. He shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments alter another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have bee na bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret.

The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow, The shadow parent - Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send Shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Shadow Mio goes to take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making Haine wonder what Shadow Mio is doing. Haine then sees Shadow Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret.

He serves [[Heine|Haine]] and wants to help her revive her. According to Heine, he is greed incarnate. He is also known as the four armed shadow or initially though to be a shadow parent by [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. His real name is '''Shidehiko Hishigata''', who married Haine and took her surname Karikiri. As their child was actually a clone of him, he made Haine transfers his personality and memories into him and kept getting reborn over and over. Currently he assumes the identity of [[Masahito Karikiri]], a supposed descendant of Shidehiko. ==Appearance== Shide has the form of a large tall man with four arms and four eyes. A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them. Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot. Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must be the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he has it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] enter a cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Haine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Haine, the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Haine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree on them dragging Mio into this, but the shadow parent states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow parent is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow parent states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he hasn't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he loses sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow parent then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up, along with Hizuru, who shoots the shadow parent in the head and frees Shinpei. She then attempts to kill Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield and protects him, while also shoots and kills Hizuru. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu as well. He notes that they almost lost Shinpei, but then sees that Shinpei drank a poison to kill himself. Haine attempts to reprogram Ushio, but Ushio starts turning her corrosion back at her. She tells the shadow parent to kill Ushio, but before he is able to, Shinpei dies and takes Ushio with him, looping them back in time. ===5th Loop=== The shadow parent goes to Shiori's house and when Ryunosuke attacks, he fights him. He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Haine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow parent states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who tries to pin him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later.

He is from France and runs a restaurant called "Western Cuisine Kofune" in Hitogashima. For [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]], he is the adoptive father who welcomed him after he lost his parents in an accident. His wife, Kotoko, died after the birth of Mio. ==Appearance== Alain is an adult man with short blond hair and moustache. ==Personality== ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Alain attends his daughter's funeral. That evening, he sits with Mio and Shinpei and eat the curry Shinpei had made. The next day, he, Mio and Shinpei work at the Kofune's dinner. === 3rd Loop === Alain was throwing out the trash, when he saw the red light in the sky. He then saw shadows coming and consuming him. === 4th Loop === At the funeral, [[Masahito Karikiri|Masahito]] calls him to see if he can recognize [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]], but she reveals her name. A bit later, Alain receives a call from Mio, telling him that she and Shinpei would be late as they fell into the sea. Overhearing that, Hizuru asks him about Shinpei and Alain explains he took Shinepi Ajiro after he lost his parents as he was the son of his best friend. Hizuru decides to leave, but Alain follows her and reveals that Ushio had marks on her neck, which reminds him of Ryunosuke Nagumo's death. After Hizuru checks Ushio's neck, she asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she saw her doppleganger, but Alain doesn't know. During the lunch at the crematorium, Shinpei asks him about shadow sickness and Alain tells him he heard stories about it. Shinpei then describes the woman from the boat and Alain realizes he is talking about Hizuru. He gives him a note she gave him as contacts info, but he doesn't understand it. Alain then heads to the bathroom. Secretly Hizuru follows him and puts a "maintenance" note on his toilet stall. A shadow Alain enters and opens the second stall. Hizuru awaits there and hits the shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills shadow Alain, making the real Alain wonder what is the noise outside. == Etymology == * The name '''Alain''' has many meanings depending on the different languages: ** In English, it means "fair; handsome". ** In French and Celtic - Gaelic, it means "little rock". * Alain's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine|Haine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. The shadows are capable of two types of copying: transformation and childbirth. When transforming, they replicate something with their body.

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine|Haine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. The shadows are capable of two types of copying: transformation and childbirth. When transforming, they replicate something with their body. While with childbirth, they split off part of their body to create a new shadow. Heine can give childbirth many times, but the children she makes can only give birth to one human shadow, and those grand-children cannot give birth, however, all shadows can transform repeatedly.

Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to [[Tetsu Totsumura]], however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Shiori helps with cleaning the beach. After Ushio sees her own shadow, she goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. On 21st, Shiori and other kids are at the beach for a swim. Hamaji makes fun of Shiori for using swim float and finds her lame that she can't swim. Shiori goes to Mio and asks her how to become a good swimmer like her and Mio decides to teach her. Ushio joins them, stating that she will be protecting Shiori, but she wonders what she means. While the group is being distracted by Akari, Shiori is dragged into the water by her Shadow, who starts to take her to the bottom. Ushio and her Shadow come to her help. Shadow Ushio manages to retake Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori still manages to immobilize them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori from them, but is then strangled by her. Shadow Ushio tries to reach the surface with Shiori, but Shadow Shiori catches up to them. She then attacks Shadow Ushio, realizing she is faulty and tries to fix her. However, as Mio and Sou are getting close, Shadow Shiori leaves Shadow Ushio sink to the bottom and erases Shiori, proceeding to act unconscious so that Mio and Sou save her. ==Plot== Shiori end up seeing her own shadow and told [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] that she saw a girl that looks like her.

He then sees two adult-size black strains and strange dents on the floor, figuring they were killed by a shadow. He goes on the second floor looking for Shiori, but Shiori then appears after him causing a flash and wondering why he asked her if she saw a young girl looking like her and if there is something wrong with her. Shinpei realizes that she is a shadow. Shiori then produces a shadow, preparing to kill Shinpei, but Shiomi then comes and the shadow Shiori decides to leave. == Etymology == [[Category:Characters]] [[Category:Females]] c57b7fa1acefc6694ba9276c343348071ee89d1b 0 548 1190 1150 2022-08-16T16:08:31Z Okyye 43644259 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Maid in Black | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 19 | image = | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director =Nobu Ishida | previousEpisode = [[Episode 18]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 20]] |airDate = August 19, 2022 |storyboard =Akinori Fudesaka |adaptation = }}<nowiki> </nowiki>'''Maid in Black''' (メイドインブラック, ''Meido in Burakku'') is the 19th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== ==Summary== ==Characters== [[Category:Episodes]] ed1b4c707bdc548d8c163aa160e7289d720d1a2c 1191 1190 2022-08-19T17:07:27Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Made in Black | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 19 | image = | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Nobu Ishida | previousEpisode = [[Episode 18]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 20]] |airDate = August 19, 2022 |storyboard = Akinori Fudesaka |adaptation = [[Chapter 100]]<br>[[Chapter 101]]<br>[[Chapter 102]]<br>[[Chapter 103]]<br>[[Chapter 104]]<br>[[Chapter 105]]<br>[[Chapter 106]] (p. 2-14) }}<nowiki> </nowiki>'''Made in Black''' (メイドインブラック, ''Meido in Burakku'') is the 19th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== ==Summary== ==Characters== [[Category:Episodes]] 2e3b8681b881f0422dcefe7b43ceb222ab28a274 1208 1191 2022-08-19T17:20:59Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Made in Black | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 19 | image = Episode 19 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Nobu Ishida | previousEpisode = [[Episode 18]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 20]] |airDate = August 19, 2022 |storyboard = Akinori Fudesaka |adaptation = [[Chapter 100]]<br>[[Chapter 101]]<br>[[Chapter 102]]<br>[[Chapter 103]]<br>[[Chapter 104]]<br>[[Chapter 105]]<br>[[Chapter 106]] (p. 2-14) }}<nowiki> </nowiki>'''Made in Black''' (メイドインブラック, ''Meido in Burakku'') is the 19th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== ==Summary== ==Characters== [[Category:Episodes]] c948089c6aaf34302c8d555575a5a90e01ff0f04 1209 1208 2022-08-20T17:42:55Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Made in Black | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 19 | image = Episode 19 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Nobu Ishida | previousEpisode = [[Episode 18]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 20]] |airDate = August 19, 2022 |storyboard = Akinori Fudesaka |adaptation = [[Chapter 100]]<br>[[Chapter 101]]<br>[[Chapter 102]]<br>[[Chapter 103]]<br>[[Chapter 104]]<br>[[Chapter 105]]<br>[[Chapter 106]] (p. 2-14) }}'''Made in Black''' (メイドインブラック, ''Meido in Burakku'') is the 19th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei and his team lost the tide. In the midst of this desperate situation, Masahito and Haine make a new move. Mio and Hizuru, who learned of the death of Ushio through a call from Shinpei, head for the rendezvous point designated by Shinpei. Mio went to Shinpei with Sou, but Masahito was waiting for her. On the other hand, "Shinpei" was waiting for Hizuru at the destination... ==Summary== [[Haine]] appears in front of [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] in the form of a crow and states he must have just returned from a loop, but as she can't feel Ushio presence, she must finally be dead. Haine then copies the young girl Akari and tells Shinpei that while he just came back from the loop, he must be on the edge of the loop and since he is immune, she no longer can take him with her to her home. Shinpei realizes she have been spying on with while she is a crow. Haine then summons some stray shadows. Shinpei realizes she can inherit copied data too, but that would mean she didn't eat all the people at the shrine. Haine states it was his fault as she had to use all her regained power just to chase him. As she prepares to attack, Shinpei puts his hand in the pocket and grabs unconsciously something. Seeing that, Haine stops the shadow and retreats. Shinpei wonders why she left and takes out his hand to see he is holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei calls [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] and informs her that Ushio is dead and they need to regroup at the north eastern island of Torajima, which can only be accessed during low tide. However, its a Shadow Shinpei with [[Masahito Karikiri|Masahito]] who called Hizuru as Shinpei's connection is unstable. Masahito wonders when Haine copied Shinpei. She tells him to think about it as this isn't part of Ushio's memories and its a hole in their pseudo-loops. Haine tells Masahito she has work for him as Shide. Shinpei returns to Kofune's restaurant, but [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] tells him that Sou and Mio went to meet with him 30 mins ago. He leaves the kids and realizes there is a shadow of him and wonders when they got it. He recalls the times he got copied, but since the loops restarted, he believes they were erased. However, he then realizes that Shiori is Haine and during the early loops, while he was dying Mio told Tetsu she can't copy him, since their Mother copied him already. Shinpei then wonders how they made the call as unless his phone is destroyed, the copied phone shouldn't work. Shinpei hears a voice and checks his room to see shadow Mio pinned to the ground. Shadow Mio shares her memory and Shinpei see that Mio pinned her, since she feared her hacking may be undone since Ushio died. Shinpei explains about his shadow and realizes that his shadow copied his phone during the festival and Shiori absorbed that information at the end. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone, but its Haine transformed as him. She tells him that they are at Torajima, while Mio is at Alain's garden and he its his choice who he wants to save. Shinpei starts to wonder what to do and decides first to gather all he can use as weapons. About ten minutes earlier, Mio and Sou go to Alain's garden and they see Masahito there. Masahito then transforms into Shide. At the same time, Hizuru's group is looking at Torajima. Ginjiro wonders if Shinpei is really the one that called them, but Hizuru explains that Ryunosuke can't distinguish human from shadow over the phone, but the call originates from Shinpei's device. With Ushio dead, there is the possibility that Shinpei is dead too and its now a world observed by Haine, however, they still need to kill her. Tokiko can't contact Mio, but Alain said she and Sou went to meet up with Shinpei. Hizuru decides to go alone on the island and asks Ginjiro if he can cover her with his rifle and he states only if she is in the southern part. Hizuru then wants Tokiko to send her shadows and tells Tetsu to do his best to survive. Ryunosuke then goes to Torajima and sees Shinpei, but feels Haine's presence. Ryunosuke reveals that he knows its Haine and Haine states she promised to kill her 14 years ago. Masahito appears behind her, but Ryunosuke manages to dodge the spear. Ryunosuke figures he must be Shide and he killed Ushio with attack from behind, since he is human. Haine reveals she copied Ryunosuke 14 years ago, but couldn't bear that she ate her friends brother, so she expelled part of her, along with Ryunosuke's data. However, there was a small incident and coordinates in time shifted and Ryunosuke is controlling Hizuru's body from two seconds in the future. Masahito states that Hizuru getting close to Haine, eventually caused her harm and her illness progressed, and she now has months left to live. Masahito explains that Haine's eyes see his shift and relays information to Masahito, which makes Ryunosuke's two second meaningless. He then shows a black ball, stating its mud, a ball of former shadows. The mud reacts to his will and changes its form, turning him into Shide. Ryunosuke notes that Hizuru would call it an armor of corpses. Shide then attacks Ryunosuke, who recalls its what Hizuru told him, Shide will let him dodge and will then aim to kill him as he lands. Knowing that and that Haine would relay his shift, Ryunosuke states he must be fast and blocks Shide's gun with the hammer and then jumps at him and hits him in the head. He then quickly smashes Shide's head again, before he can fall on the ground. However, Shide turns into pieces of mud and moves to another location and reforms as Shide. He notes that Ryunosuke has an amazing moves, but his human body can't keep up forever, and his wounds had opened up. Ryunosuke knows he is running out of time as Hizuru's body won't last much longer. He hopes he can get into Genjiro's sight and use that moment to escape. Hizuru then takes over and states they aren't running away. Ryunosuke gets excited that he and Hizuru are awake at the same time and can talk to her, but she tells him to shut up. Hizuru states they can win, and with Shinpei's status unknown, they are forced to fight or they will die tomorrow. She tells him that he doesn't need to destroy the armor, as the one inside is just a human. She tells Ryunosuke her plan and leaves her body to him, and he is free to break her body and make full use of her. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Haine]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Tokiko

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows.

Later, when the group finds Seido and teams up with him, outside the house, Shadow Mio talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio. Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. The next day, when Shinpei was leaving with Ushio to find and kill shadows, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk about when he returns. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden.

He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ===3rd Loop=== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ===4th Loop=== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. ===6th Loop=== Sou along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Sou agrees. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko gives him first aid and then Sou takes over, not wanting him to die before answering for what he did. Seido awakens, but wants Tokiko to kill them, so that Heine can gain his trust again. As Tokiko refuses, because the shadows had betrayed them, Seido takes the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko turns into Shadow Mio and stops him. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything. Heine wanted to return to her world, and Seido, Chitose, Sou and Tokiko would going her as shadows> Seido also reveals that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido shows Sou, Chitose's ashes, as he couldn't give her body to Heine to eat. He reveals that she died from a heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that is days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believe it will be too much for Sou to bear all this and he values life, and that's why he chose his sister as successor. Next day, the group is split in two teams and Sou is left with Mio and Shadow Mio to wait at the Kofune restaurant. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

He wears glasses and is usually in his priest uniform. ==Personality== ==Plot== Masahito performs the funeral of [[Ushio Kofune]] and calls [[Shinpei Ajiro]] to help with the procession. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, at the funeral, Masahito recognizes [[Hizuru Minakata]], even though its been fourteen years. She asks him if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and he confirms. He wonders why she came back, but as she was replying, he interrupts her, guessing she studied for being a teacher or doctor. Hizuru gets annoyed and tells him she remembered why she couldn't stand him. Masahito then calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. At the funeral crematorium, Shinpei asks him if he knows about the shadow sickness and Masahito confirms as it was his grandfather who named it. As he describes the woman on the boat, Masahito guesses he is talking about Hizuru. === 7th Loop === Shinpei goes to speak with Masahito at the shrine. They talk about video games and then Shinpei tells him about the Swamp Man novel, where the protagonist gets replaced by a perfect copy and no one notices. He then retells the Hiruko legend and how the shadow sickness started with the whale that washed ashore, turning to a girl and ate it. Masahito laughs at Shinpei for thinking the shadows are real, but Shinpei throws pictures at him, telling him that he very well knows its true as Masahito was there. Masahito sees a 70 years old picture with him on it, and a 40 years old picture with him, Haine and their child. Shinpei wonders if he should call him Shidehiko Hishigata and that he is a human-shadow hybrid. Masahito then explains that during the famine in 1732, they turned hundred of the islanders into shadows and that way they needed less food to survive, which he believes saved the island. Ushio gets angry and asks him about Shinpei's parents. Masahito then explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public, so he had to kill them, but wonders if they would have been happier if he made them shadows. Masahito notes that Shinpei probably wonders why his arm isn't injured. Ushio unable to take it anymore, shows up and kills Masahito. Moments later, another Masahito who turns into [[Shide]] comes out and kills both Ushio and Shinpei. === 8th Loop === Haine contacts Hizuru and Mio, while having copied Shinpei, and arranges a meeting with them at different locations. She sends one Masahito at Alain's garden, while another takes with her. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage.

As their child was actually a clone of him, he made Haine transfers his personality and memories into him and kept getting reborn over and over. Currently he assumes the identity of [[Masahito Karikiri]], a supposed descendant of Shidehiko. ==Appearance== Shide has the form of a large tall man with four arms and four eyes. A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them. Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot. Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must be the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he has it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] enter a cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Haine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Haine, the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Haine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree on them dragging Mio into this, but the shadow parent states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow parent is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow parent states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he hasn't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he loses sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow parent then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up, along with Hizuru, who shoots the shadow parent in the head and frees Shinpei. She then attempts to kill Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield and protects him, while also shoots and kills Hizuru. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu as well. He notes that they almost lost Shinpei, but then sees that Shinpei drank a poison to kill himself. Haine attempts to reprogram Ushio, but Ushio starts turning her corrosion back at her. She tells the shadow parent to kill Ushio, but before he is able to, Shinpei dies and takes Ushio with him, looping them back in time. ===5th Loop=== The shadow parent goes to Shiori's house and when Ryunosuke attacks, he fights him. He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Haine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow parent states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who tries to pin him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow, The shadow parent - Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school.

They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send Shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio.

She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with [[Asako Kobayakawa|Asako]] jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage.

He serves [[Heine|Haine]] and wants to help her revive her. According to Heine, he is greed incarnate. He is also known as the four armed shadow or initially though to be a shadow parent by [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. His real name is '''Shidehiko Hishigata''', who married Haine and took her surname Karikiri. As their child was actually a clone of him, he made Haine transfers his personality and memories into him and kept getting reborn over and over. Currently he assumes the identity of [[Masahito Karikiri]], a supposed descendant of Shidehiko. ==Appearance== Shide has the form of a large tall man with four arms and four eyes. A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them. Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot. Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must be the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he has it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] enter a cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Haine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Haine, the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Haine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree on them dragging Mio into this, but the shadow parent states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow parent is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow parent states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he hasn't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he loses sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow parent then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up, along with Hizuru, who shoots the shadow parent in the head and frees Shinpei. She then attempts to kill Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield and protects him, while also shoots and kills Hizuru. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu as well. He notes that they almost lost Shinpei, but then sees that Shinpei drank a poison to kill himself. Haine attempts to reprogram Ushio, but Ushio starts turning her corrosion back at her. She tells the shadow parent to kill Ushio, but before he is able to, Shinpei dies and takes Ushio with him, looping them back in time. ===5th Loop=== The shadow parent goes to Shiori's house and when Ryunosuke attacks, he fights him. He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Haine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow parent states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who tries to pin him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow, The shadow parent - Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send Shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Shadow Mio goes to take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making Haine wonder what Shadow Mio is doing. Haine then sees Shadow Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with [[Asako Kobayakawa|Asako]] jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide.

That evening, he sits with Mio and Shinpei and eat the curry Shinpei had made. The next day, he, Mio and Shinpei work at the Kofune's dinner. === 3rd Loop === Alain was throwing out the trash, when he saw the red light in the sky. He then saw shadows coming and consuming him. === 4th Loop === At the funeral, [[Masahito Karikiri|Masahito]] calls him to see if he can recognize [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]], but she reveals her name. A bit later, Alain receives a call from Mio, telling him that she and Shinpei would be late as they fell into the sea. Overhearing that, Hizuru asks him about Shinpei and Alain explains he took Shinepi Ajiro after he lost his parents as he was the son of his best friend. Hizuru decides to leave, but Alain follows her and reveals that Ushio had marks on her neck, which reminds him of Ryunosuke Nagumo's death. After Hizuru checks Ushio's neck, she asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she saw her doppleganger, but Alain doesn't know. During the lunch at the crematorium, Shinpei asks him about shadow sickness and Alain tells him he heard stories about it. Shinpei then describes the woman from the boat and Alain realizes he is talking about Hizuru. He gives him a note she gave him as contacts info, but he doesn't understand it. Alain then heads to the bathroom. Secretly Hizuru follows him and puts a "maintenance" note on his toilet stall. A shadow Alain enters and opens the second stall. Hizuru awaits there and hits the shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills shadow Alain, making the real Alain wonder what is the noise outside. === 8th Loop === Shinpei comes to Kofune Restaurant and leaves some kids to Alain to look after, which he saved from shadow Bucchi. He asks for Mio and Alain explains she and Sou left 30 mins ago to meet with Shinpei. == Etymology == * The name '''Alain''' has many meanings depending on the different languages: ** In English, it means "fair; handsome". ** In French and Celtic - Gaelic, it means "little rock". * Alain's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels.

Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Ginjiro then realizes why they went right away for his rifle and also knew his location. Believing they don't have a chance, he wants them to run, but Shinpei refuses to leave Hizuru. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Tokiko remains in the car with Ginjiro and Mio. She had let Shadow Mio copy her and join the group. Tokiko also wanted Shadow Mio to learn everything about her and her feelings. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human.

Tokiko remains in the car with Ginjiro and Mio. She had let Shadow Mio copy her and join the group. Tokiko also wanted Shadow Mio to learn everything about her and her feelings. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. When Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, she no longer can fight and Tokiko comes with the two shadows and helps her fight Shide. However, things don't go well and Tokiko barely escape thanks to Ginjiro and Tetsu. She manages to follow Shadow Mio's trace and finds Shinpei with her. As Tokiko is fatally injured, before she dies, she tells Shinpei to save Ryunosuke and Hizuru on Torajima. Shadow Mio then scan her memories and show them to Shinpei, who decides to restart the loop. ===9th Loop=== Knowing how Hizuru would fight, Shide easily defeats her. Tokiko attacks with the a stray shadow, but Shide easily kills the shadow. Shinpei then comes and Haine decides to leave. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

He is usually in his police uniform and wears yellow glass sunglasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== The evening of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Tetsu sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] standing in front of her house and looking inside. The next day, he misses breakfast and goes at lunch at Kofune's dinner and orders the usual. Mio takes his order and wonder why he didn't came in the morning and Tetsu explains that the whole Kobayakawa family is gone, making him believe that they had a debt and ran in the middle of the night. ===2nd Loop=== On the second time Shinpei arrived on Hitogashima, he goes outside to take some fresh air. There he sees when Tetsu found Mio staring at her house. Tetsu wonders what is she doing, but Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife.

Tetsu reveals the Kobayakawa family is gone and that a detective will be coming from mainland this evening. He then gives to Shinpei a phone that Ushio had left him and told him to give to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, a day before she died. ===4th Loop=== Tetsu is on his way to the bar to drink and talk with Erika, but encounters Mio, who wonders if he saw Shiori, but he denies it. The two then see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. Tetsu finds badly injured Ryunosuke who switches to Hizuru, who asks where is Mio. Tetsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. As he takes her, she shoots at the shadow parent and frees, Shinpei, but then gets killed by it. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu. ===6th Loop=== Tetsu along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tetsu find it crazy and suicide, but as the rest agree, he agrees too. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima.

(All is (not) lost.) is the 20th episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Hizuru and Masahito engage in a fierce battle. The stray shadows, controlled by Tokiko, join in the fight, and the battle becomes even more intense. Meanwhile, Shinpei and Mio's shadows head for the other Masahito. Mio's shadow attack and kills Masahito without hesitation, but when she feels something and they find Tokiko on the verge of dying. Saying that she was saved by Hizuru and Ginjiro, Tokiko pleads with Shinpei to go to Hizuru and the others immediately. ==Summary== While fighting, [[Shide]] manages to break Ryunosuke's hammer, but he takes Shide's spear and starts cutting and piercing him numerous times. However, that has no effect on Shide, as he just regenerates. He wonders why Hizuru hates him that much and she explains that she hates his words. [[Haine]] asks Hizuru why she came back. Hizuru states she should know as she scanned her before, but it seems Haine can't understand it. Hizuru suggest scanning her again and create her shadow. Haine refuses, guessing that Mio gave her immunity, and Hizuru may plan to destroy Shinpei's shadow the moment Haine starts to scan. Then she will defeat Shide as he won't be having help from Haine's eyes and then head underground and destroy Haine's body. Haine again asks why Hizuru came back. Hizuru notes to Ryunosuke that Haine is acting as Shinpei's personality, who is calm and aloof, but when there is something he can't understand, he won't rest until he finds the answer, and decides to talk with her to buy some time. Hizuru tells Haine that she was first curious about the message she received, but she also found a chance to redeem herself. Hizuru states Ryunosuke's death was her fault, but it was considered an accident and no one blamed her. By some miracle, she was able to apologize to him through his shadow, but that can't bring him back to life, so at least she can try and save the lives that haven't been lost yet. Shide notes that the most annoying people are those that think of themselves as servants of justice, but hearing that, Hizuru starts to laugh and wonders if Shide really acts on Haine's behalf. Her goal is to get home, but at the end of the third loop, Shide said something that go against her wish, stating this is his ending. Hizuru wonders what he meant. Shide states he doesn't remember such thing and that Hizuru is trying to confuse her. Shide decides its time to end things and attacks Hizuru, who notes that she didn't want Haine to see this yet, but if Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes part of Shide's armor and forms his own shadow and revealing [[Masahito Karikiri|Masahito]]. Without Ryunosuke, Hizuru has exceeded her body limit and starts to fall, but [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then comes and grabs her and attacks with the stray shadow. Meanwhile, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and shadow Mio face Masahito, who kinda knew Shinpei would come for Mio. Shadow Mio tells Shinpei to stand back and that she will take care of Masahito. He wonders if Mio can kill him and states that Mio and Sou has been send to the Hiruko Cave for Haine to eat them. Shinpei states he should have run and not waited them, but Masahito explains he couldn't leave it to shadows, as he doesn't want to loose more comrades to hacking. Hearing that, Shinpei realizes he thinks that Ushio is still alive. Masahito tells Mio to kill Shinpei so he can loop or they will be late. However, Mio then goes and beheads Masahito, who then states they will see each other in the next loop. Mio and Sou are then eaten by Haine and Shadow Mio feels it and tells Shinpei that Mio just died. Shinpei then tells her to scan Masahito to search his memories. She does, but states he has no memories and is empty. Mio then feels something and call Shinpei to follow her. They find barely alive Tokiko, who explains that Ginjiro and Tetsu helped her escape. As she dies, Tokiko tells Shinpei to go to Torajima and save Ryunosuke who is fighting Shide. Mio then scans the dead Tokiko and shows her memory to Shinpei. He sees that Tokiko had her fathers gun and that it has one more bullet and takes it. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are already dead, however they for sure know that Mio is dead and if they don't hurry, her death will be permanent. Shinpei believes that if he loops now, he can still save everyone and will start from when he descended with the kids earlier. He will then head to Kofune and save Shadow Mio first, then they will stop Mio and Sou. Shinpei then kills himself with the gun. About 30 minutes into the 9th loop, Shinpei and Shadow Mio uses the sewers and manage to get in front of Sou and Mio, and stop them. Shinpei asks if their phones are turned off and Mio confirms as Shinpei told them, they may get a call from a shadow, but Shadow Mio tells them they already got such call. Mio then apologizes to Shadow Mio for hurting her. Shinpei tells them to return to Kofune and protect the kids, while he and Shadow Mio go to Torajima. From Tokiko's memories, Shinpei knows that Hizuru gave signal to Tokiko in 10:45AM, which means they should be able to reach Torajima in that time. They reach in the time that Tokiko attacks with one of the stray, however, in an instant, Shide kills the stray shadow. Shinpei joins the fight and Haine guesses that he looped after he learned what happened here and it was probably Tokiko who told him. Shinpei then sees Hizuru defeated with the spear piercing her chest. Shide explains it was thanks to Shinpei, that he got to fight Hizuru again, and knowing what she was going to do, gave him an easy win. Ginjiro realizes why they also went for his rifle and knew his location. Ginjiro doesn't believe they can win and wish they for them to run. Shinpei wants to stay for Hizuru. Haine sees Ushio in Shinpei's pocket and decides to retreat as they are outnumbered. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shide]] *[[Haine]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 8e0d33ca19f47513e549d5babf7e1ee8a06be8ae 1234 1221 2022-08-30T03:22:47Z Okyye 43644259 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = All Is (Not) Lost. | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 20 | image = Episode 20 Title.png | writer =Hiroshi Seko | director =Yū Harima | previousEpisode = [[Episode 19]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 21]] |airDate = August 26, 2022 |storyboard =Miyuki Sugawara |adaptation = }}'''All Is (Not) Lost.'''

She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes part of Shide's armor and forms his own shadow and revealing [[Masahito Karikiri|Masahito]]. Without Ryunosuke, Hizuru has exceeded her body limit and starts to fall, but [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then comes and grabs her and attacks with the stray shadow. Meanwhile, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and shadow Mio face Masahito, who kinda knew Shinpei would come for Mio. Shadow Mio tells Shinpei to stand back and that she will take care of Masahito. He wonders if Mio can kill him and states that Mio and Sou has been send to the Hiruko Cave for Haine to eat them. Shinpei states he should have run and not waited them, but Masahito explains he couldn't leave it to shadows, as he doesn't want to loose more comrades to hacking. Hearing that, Shinpei realizes he thinks that Ushio is still alive. Masahito tells Mio to kill Shinpei so he can loop or they will be late. However, Mio then goes and beheads Masahito, who then states they will see each other in the next loop. Mio and Sou are then eaten by Haine and Shadow Mio feels it and tells Shinpei that Mio just died. Shinpei then tells her to scan Masahito to search his memories. She does, but states he has no memories and is empty. Mio then feels something and call Shinpei to follow her. They find barely alive Tokiko, who explains that Ginjiro and Tetsu helped her escape. As she dies, Tokiko tells Shinpei to go to Torajima and save Ryunosuke who is fighting Shide. Mio then scans the dead Tokiko and shows her memory to Shinpei. He sees that Tokiko had her fathers gun and that it has one more bullet and takes it. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are already dead, however they for sure know that Mio is dead and if they don't hurry, her death will be permanent. Shinpei believes that if he loops now, he can still save everyone and will start from when he descended with the kids earlier. He will then head to Kofune and save Shadow Mio first, then they will stop Mio and Sou. Shinpei then kills himself with the gun. About 30 minutes into the 9th loop, Shinpei and Shadow Mio uses the sewers and manage to get in front of Sou and Mio, and stop them. Shinpei asks if their phones are turned off and Mio confirms as Shinpei told them, they may get a call from a shadow, but Shadow Mio tells them they already got such call. Mio then apologizes to Shadow Mio for hurting her. Shinpei tells them to return to Kofune and protect the kids, while he and Shadow Mio go to Torajima. From Tokiko's memories, Shinpei knows that Hizuru gave signal to Tokiko in 10:45AM, which means they should be able to reach Torajima in that time. They reach in the time that Tokiko attacks with one of the stray, however, in an instant, Shide kills the stray shadow. Shinpei joins the fight and Haine guesses that he looped after he learned what happened here and it was probably Tokiko who told him. Shinpei then sees Hizuru defeated with the spear piercing her chest. Shide explains it was thanks to Shinpei, that he got to fight Hizuru again, and knowing what she was going to do, gave him an easy win. Ginjiro realizes why they also went for his rifle and knew his location. Ginjiro doesn't believe they can win and wish they for them to run. Shinpei wants to stay for Hizuru. Haine sees Ushio in Shinpei's pocket and decides to retreat as they are outnumbered. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shide]] *[[Haine]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] bed7be4c17c1faae27d4d2802395c898f5e410f8 6 564 1222 2022-08-28T17:02:24Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 0 335 1228 1182 2022-08-28T17:30:19Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Shadow | image = Shadow.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = Shadow | gender = | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Shadow''' (影, ''Kage'') are mysterious creatures that inhabit Hitogashima. Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine|Haine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. The shadows are capable of two types of copying: transformation and childbirth. When transforming, they replicate something with their body. While with childbirth, they split off part of their body to create a new shadow. Heine can give childbirth many times, but the children she makes can only give birth to one human shadow, and those grand-children cannot give birth, however, all shadows can transform repeatedly. Whether is childbirth or transformation, they need to erase the original human within a week or the shadows will turn into mud and vanish. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

Assuming his role, Mio then asks him to give her his gun, causing Tetsu to realize she still haven't killed the real Mio and taken her place. Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital. Taking the gun, Shadow Mio comments that she can't go in and kill her now or everyone will hear the gunshot and will be just scouting for today. In that moment, Shinpei's phone vibrates, Mio hears it, find Shinpei and stabs him in the neck.

At the shrine, he captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast.

A bit later Asako approaches Shinpei and asks him what he means. Seeing they are shadows, Shinpei explains its something he heard from Mio's grandmother when they were kids.

Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Seido Hishigata appears before Shinpei, who is in despair over Hizuru's death. In the course of his conversation with Seido, Shinpei learned a new clue about Shide. There was a possibility that Shide had kept his own corpse as a spare body. Furthermore, Shinpei recalls that on the day of the Hitogashima Summer Festival - July 24th - Ushio, who had no memories, will return. There are signs of Ushio's resurrection, but Haine and Masahito are also trying to capture her. ==Summary== Its raining outside and [[Seido Hishigata|Seido]] calls [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] tells [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Mio is happy to have let it out of her chest, but as she returns to her room, she cries over Tokiko's shoulder. Shadow Mio states that if they defeat Haine, Ushio will be gone and if Mio asked if she would have a chance then. However, Mio couldn't ask that and knows that Shinpei isn't a playboy. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei and Ginjiro are waiting together. Ginjiro gets to talk to Ryunosuke and they reminisce on Hizuru. [[Haine]] asks [[Masahito Karikiri|Masahito]] if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. [[Shide]] and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Haine]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Shide]] [[Category:Episodes]] c98af024049af3d74b1daecf381b890c0caa7daf 1290 1281 2022-09-04T15:49:23Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Shinpei Ajiro's Longest Day | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 21 | image = Episode 21 Title.png | writer =Hiroshi Seko | director =Katsuya Ōshima | previousEpisode = [[Episode 20]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 22]] |airDate = September 2, 2022 |storyboard =Katsuya Ōshima |adaptation =[[Chapter 114]]<br>[[Chapter 115]]<br>[[Chapter 116]]<br>[[Chapter 117]]<br>[[Chapter 118]] (p. 1-22) }}'''Shinpei Ajiro's Longest Day''' (網代慎平の一番長い日, ''Ajiro Shinpei no Ichiban Nagai Hi'') is the 21st episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Seido Hishigata appears before Shinpei, who is in despair over Hizuru's death.

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

He also wears glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At Hishigata Clinic, Seido is with a shadow in a wheelchair. He sees the red light in the sky and comments that [[Heine]] had recovered by consuming thousands of humans. ===4th Loop=== Seido calls Negoro and tells her to use the policeman's, Tadashi Miura's, body as today's food at 9 o'clock. ===7th Loop=== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]]'s group arrives at the hospital to see all items and furniture erased and traces of a fight that leads them to the basement morgue. There they continue through a hallway that leads to Hiruko Cave, and on the way they find Seido being choked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio stops Chitose and severs their connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko and then Sou, give him first aid and manage to save him. Seeing that they had gotten to this point, Seido realizes that's why Heine wanted to kill him: she was afraid he would tell them everything. He orders Tokiko to kill them, so he could regain Heine's trust, but Tokiko refuses, acknowledging that the shadows betrayed them. Enraged, Seido manages to take the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He turns to Ushio, but Tokiko then stops him, revealing she was actually Shadow Mio. Seido refuses to talk, Shadow Mio attempts to scan him but learns that he is immune. Negoro then shows up with Ushio's body and gives Seido a message from Shide, thanking the Hishigata family for all their help, but this is the end. Realizing he is immune and can't achieve his goal, Seido decides to talk. He reveals that Heine wants to return to her world, which only shadows can reach and he was supposed to join her with his wife Chitose, Tokiko and Sou. Chitose calls him an idiot, but thanks him for saving her, and tells him he can still do the right thing. Seido calls Tokiko to dig up a safe he had given her, containing a list of patients who had died and had been fed to Heine. Including Shinpei's parents. Seido also shows a photo, revealing that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to: Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido reveals Chitose's ashes to Sou, confessing that he couldn't give her body to Heine for food. He reveals that she died from heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that was days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believed it would be too much for Sou to bear and that's why he chose his sister as successor. ===9th=== Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound.

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Ginjiro then realizes why they went right away for his rifle and also knew his location. Believing they don't have a chance, he wants them to run, but Shinpei refuses to leave Hizuru. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

He is the eldest son of Hishigata Clinic, the only hospital on Hitogashima, and is studying to become a doctor. He has a strong sense of justice and regrets that he was present at the scene of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s maritime accident but was unable to prevent it. He has confessed his feelings to [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] twice in the past and was rejected. ==Appearance== Sou is a young man with messy brown hair and brown eyes. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== At [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Sou hugs Shinpei and apologizes for not being able to help her. He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ===3rd Loop=== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ===4th Loop=== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. ===6th Loop=== Sou along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Sou agrees. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko gives him first aid and then Sou takes over, not wanting him to die before answering for what he did. Seido awakens, but wants Tokiko to kill them, so that Heine can gain his trust again. As Tokiko refuses, because the shadows had betrayed them, Seido takes the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko turns into Shadow Mio and stops him. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything. Heine wanted to return to her world, and Seido, Chitose, Sou and Tokiko would going her as shadows> Seido also reveals that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido shows Sou, Chitose's ashes, as he couldn't give her body to Heine to eat. He reveals that she died from a heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that is days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believe it will be too much for Sou to bear all this and he values life, and that's why he chose his sister as successor. Next day, the group is split in two teams and Sou is left with Mio and Shadow Mio to wait at the Kofune restaurant. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since Seido Hishigata may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Later, when the group finds Seido and teams up with him, outside the house, Shadow Mio talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio. Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. The next day, when Shinpei was leaving with Ushio to find and kill shadows, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk about when he returns. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Mio is happy to have let it out of her chest, but as she returns to her room, she cries over Tokiko's shoulder. Shadow Mio states that if they defeat Haine, Ushio will be gone and if Mio asked if she would have a chance then. However, Mio couldn't ask that and knows that Shinpei isn't a playboy. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

He is soft-spoken and easy to talk to, but his long stories are his weak point. ==Appearance== Masahito is an young adult man with medium long light brown hair. He wears glasses and is usually in his priest uniform. ==Personality== ==Plot== Masahito performs the funeral of [[Ushio Kofune]] and calls [[Shinpei Ajiro]] to help with the procession. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, at the funeral, Masahito recognizes [[Hizuru Minakata]], even though its been fourteen years. She asks him if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and he confirms. He wonders why she came back, but as she was replying, he interrupts her, guessing she studied for being a teacher or doctor. Hizuru gets annoyed and tells him she remembered why she couldn't stand him. Masahito then calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. At the funeral crematorium, Shinpei asks him if he knows about the shadow sickness and Masahito confirms as it was his grandfather who named it. As he describes the woman on the boat, Masahito guesses he is talking about Hizuru. === 7th Loop === Shinpei goes to speak with Masahito at the shrine. They talk about video games and then Shinpei tells him about the Swamp Man novel, where the protagonist gets replaced by a perfect copy and no one notices. He then retells the Hiruko legend and how the shadow sickness started with the whale that washed ashore, turning to a girl and ate it. Masahito laughs at Shinpei for thinking the shadows are real, but Shinpei throws pictures at him, telling him that he very well knows its true as Masahito was there. Masahito sees a 70 years old picture with him on it, and a 40 years old picture with him, Haine and their child. Shinpei wonders if he should call him Shidehiko Hishigata and that he is a human-shadow hybrid. Masahito then explains that during the famine in 1732, they turned hundred of the islanders into shadows and that way they needed less food to survive, which he believes saved the island. Ushio gets angry and asks him about Shinpei's parents. Masahito then explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public, so he had to kill them, but wonders if they would have been happier if he made them shadows. Masahito notes that Shinpei probably wonders why his arm isn't injured. Ushio unable to take it anymore, shows up and kills Masahito. Moments later, another Masahito who turns into [[Shide]] comes out and kills both Ushio and Shinpei. === 8th Loop === Haine contacts Hizuru and Mio, while having copied Shinpei, and arranges a meeting with them at different locations. She sends one Masahito at Alain's garden, while another takes with her. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. As they fight, Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, Ryunosuke is then able to take control on part of it and creates his own shadow. With half of his armor got, Masahito can no longer maintain his Shide form. Meanwhile, Shinpei and shadow Mio face the other Masahito, who informs them that they are too late and Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. He suggest Mio to kill Shinpei, so that he restarts the loop, but Mio instead cuts Masahito's head, who then states they will meet in the next loop. Shinpei then receives information about the fight with Hizuru and decides to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. == Etymology == * The name '''Masahito''' means "real, genuine" (真) ('''ma'''), "sand, grit" (砂) ('''sa''') and "person" (人) ('''hito'''). * Masahito's surname '''Karikiri''' means "goose/wild goose" (雁) ('''kari''') and "cut/cutoff/off, be sharp, ardent, eager, acute, keen" (切) ('''kiri''').

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

He serves [[Heine|Haine]] and wants to help her revive her. According to Heine, he is greed incarnate. He is also known as the four armed shadow or initially though to be a shadow parent by [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. His real name is '''Shidehiko Hishigata''', who married Haine and took her surname Karikiri. As their child was actually a clone of him, he made Haine transfers his personality and memories into him and kept getting reborn over and over. Currently he assumes the identity of [[Masahito Karikiri]], a supposed descendant of Shidehiko. ==Appearance== Shide has the form of a large tall man with four arms and four eyes. A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them. Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot. Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must be the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he has it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] enter a cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Haine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Haine, the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Haine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree on them dragging Mio into this, but the shadow parent states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow parent is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow parent states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he hasn't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he loses sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow parent then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up, along with Hizuru, who shoots the shadow parent in the head and frees Shinpei. She then attempts to kill Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield and protects him, while also shoots and kills Hizuru. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu as well. He notes that they almost lost Shinpei, but then sees that Shinpei drank a poison to kill himself. Haine attempts to reprogram Ushio, but Ushio starts turning her corrosion back at her. She tells the shadow parent to kill Ushio, but before he is able to, Shinpei dies and takes Ushio with him, looping them back in time. ===5th Loop=== The shadow parent goes to Shiori's house and when Ryunosuke attacks, he fights him. He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Haine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow parent states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who tries to pin him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow, The shadow parent - Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send Shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Shadow Mio goes to take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making Haine wonder what Shadow Mio is doing. Haine then sees Shadow Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with [[Asako Kobayakawa|Asako]] jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine|Haine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. The shadows are capable of two types of copying: transformation and childbirth. When transforming, they replicate something with their body. While with childbirth, they split off part of their body to create a new shadow. Heine can give childbirth many times, but the children she makes can only give birth to one human shadow, and those grand-children cannot give birth, however, all shadows can transform repeatedly. Whether is childbirth or transformation, they need to erase the original human within a week or the shadows will turn into mud and vanish. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

As she was saved and returned home, she killed and copied Shiori's parents. In the evening, Hizuru visits the Kobayakawa and Asako lets her in as Shiori orders her to. Once inside, Hizuru takes out a hammer and smashes Asako's head. Tetsuo attacks her, but she smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attacks, but Shiori smashes her shadow and kills her. Shiori then acts as a child, standing behind Hizuru and wondering why. Hizuru quickly turns and smashes Shiori's shadow, but Shiori manages to survive and moves away. She then attacks Hizuru and starts strangling her. She comments that she is dangerous as she knows how the kill shadows. However, she wonders if she is even human as she is faster than a shadow. Hizuru tells her to scan her and learn herself and Shiori states she will do, once she kills her. Hizuru then stabs herself with chopsticks and Shiori's shadow that was on Hizuru's body, which surprises Shiori, who then run to the third floor. Hizuru follows and enters Shiori's room. She then feels Shiori's presence and tells her its pointless as if she attempts to scan her, she knows that she won't be able to move for couple of seconds and will then kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and run past Hizuru and escapes through the window. As she goes outside, [[Ginjiro Nezu]] starts shooting her with a nail gun, but she manages to get past him. At a corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles Shiori, who attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro comes and shoots her shadow three times and tells Shinpei to release her as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question Shiori, who confirms that she killed Ushio. Shinpei gets angry and asks why and Shiori explains that the end is coming and she wanted to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and believes to be the true Shiori now and asks Shinpei to become a shadow and her big brother, but Hizuru then kills her. '''Shadow Alain Kofune''': Shadow Alain gets produced by Mio to learn if real Alain knows where Ushio is. Later, at the lunch at the crematorium, Alain goes to the bathroom.

To soften the attack, it transforms to its flat form and then back to its baby form and jumps on Sou. As its about to kill him, Shinpei shoots it with a nailgun, making it unable to move.

As the group decides to head to Hishigata Clinic, Shinpei asks her to protect Mio. Shadow Mio wonders if he is afraid of her and Shinpei confirms, as she had killed him a few times, but Shadow Mio states it was a different Mio from different timeline. She agrees, but states that in the end, only Shinpei can protect Mio. She copies Tokiko and they go into the Hishigata Clinic.

Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Holding the necklace left behind by Shadow Ushio, the "first Ushio" inherited all the memories. As Shinpei had planned, Ushio has made a complete comeback. Ushio tries to make a head-on breakthrough against the oncoming Masahito. However, Shinpei calmly stopped her. Shinpei asks Masahito and Haine, who confronted him from where do he think he came from? Haine and the others are astonished when they realize Shinpei's true "conviction". Shinpei points a gun at his head preparing to defeat Hiruko! ==Summary== [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] returns and attacks the shadows. [[Shide]] notices that his armor isn't recovering and realizes that Ushio had evolved again and she hacks you the moment her hair touches you. Ushio decide to take out Shide and jumps at him, who is prepared for him, but Shinpei call shadow Mio, who stops Ushio and shares Shinpei's plan. Shinpei asks Shide if he knows from where he came. As Shide isn't aware, Shinpei guesses that the handprint can't track him while he is in the stray shadow. He then places a gun on his head to restart the loop. [[Haine]] tells Shide to stop him, but with Ryunosuke's power, Shinpei sees that Shide shoots his arm and dodges it and still shoots himself. Earlier, [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] shows Shinpei on how to summon the stray shadow Guil. As he test it, the shadow falls on Sou, who ends up in the shadow. Sou explains that while inside, he couldn't see anything and Tokiko states its because Guil doesn't have eyes, but because of that his hearing is improved. While the group waits inside of Guil, Shinpei loops back with Ushio. As they step out of the stray, Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and that Shinpei planned to get Ushio and loop back to the cave. While they head towards Haine's main body, Shinpei is sure that Haine will make them their primal target and won't kill anyone on the surface until they deal with Shinpei's group. Shinpei's group then encounter a shadow, who is missing its top of the head and can shoot teeth. As the shadow had noticed Guil, it shoots two of its teeth in attempt to pin Guil. Tokiko controls Guil and breaks part of the cave, making a wall from the debris and tells the group to proceed without her as she stays with Guil to fight the shadow. Shinpei's group reach a black wall and Ushio realizes its the black mud. Ginjiro shoots it, but it just regenerates. Ushio decides to hack it, but seeing a bit into the future, Shinpei tells her to not touch it. The wall reverse Ushio's hacking and she loses 2 of her fingers, and makes Ushio realize the wall is part of Haine's main body. Shinpei had made Mio copy some fireworks and calls her, stating they will be blowing up the wall. After blowing it up, the group proceeds as the wall slowly closes up. Shinpei then notices Shide and tells Ginjiro to get down and they start shooting at Shide. The wall is almost closed, but Shide manages to get his head inside and Ginjiro shoots it with his shotgun. He tells Shinpei to proceed as he stays behind. A small part of Shide managed to get inside, but Ginjiro shoots it. Shinpei's group get closer to Haine's main body. Shinpei then hears a loud noise that causes him to feel his head will split. Ushio notes that he can sense shadows now. Mio explains that Haine is constantly emitting her shadow controlling signal. Before it felt like a smooth voice, but after Ushio hacked her, the voice is now awful, but she can easily turn off the sensation, however, since Shinpei is human, he can't ignore the signal. Ushio tells Shinpei to focus on her and as she glows, the banishes Haine's signal from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but by spinning her hair, Ushio creates a barrier and protects them. Haine shows up and notices that Shinpei feels off and as he closes his left eye, she senses Ryunosuke inside of him. Haine realizes this is why he is so confident as he now can fight them on his own. While Ushio and Shide fight, Shinpei doesn't use Ryunosuke's power to guide Ushio as either way Haine will warn Shide, and attempts to lure Haine into their "kill zone" trap. While dodging, Haine feels Mio behind her, but senses her and dodges, noting that she can feel all shadows in the area and feels a copied nailgun, which she takes out, however as it was a distraction, Sou appears on her side and shoots the nail gun at her shadow. Haine realizes that Sou had Ginjiro's original gun and she attacked the printed gun, which was a trap. Mio then attacks and slashes her, but Haine tries to focus to warn Shide of what will happen in the next two seconds. She is unable to and Ushio punches Shide, smashing his head. However, a second Shide then comes in. Ushio heads towards Haine's main body, feeling her pain and sadness, knowing she wants to go home with her loved ones. Haine yells Ushio to stop, who recalls her teacher telling her that her hands are not for hurting, but helping others. Ushio proceeds and punches Haine's main body. Shide's mud armor immediately dissolves, making him realize Haine was defeated. Mio then immediately stabs him in the head, saying that if Haine dies, so will she and then starts disappearing. Ushio states she can't stop crying and Shinpei sees that her right eye turned red. A red light appears and Shinpei's right eye starts to hurt. Mio is still alive and states that Haine must be alive too and that Ushio probably held herself back. Another Shide then appears. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Shide]] *[[Haine]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 2ff631d324068918511cd58e2323581bf27c8195 1329 1316 2022-09-10T18:35:46Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Homecoming | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 22 | image = Episode 22 Title.png | writer =Hiroshi Seko | director = | previousEpisode = [[Episode 21]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 23]] |airDate = September 9, 2022 |storyboard = |adaptation = [[Chapter 118]] (p. 20-25)<br>[[Chapter 119]]<br>[[Chapter 120]]<br>[[Chapter 121]]<br>[[Chapter 122]]<br>[[Chapter 123]]<br>[[Chapter 124]]<br>[[Chapter 125]] (p. 1-9) }}'''Homecoming''' (帰省, ''Kikan'') is the 22nd episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Holding the necklace left behind by Shadow Ushio, the "first Ushio" inherited all the memories.

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Masahito then takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased.

They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place.

They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt.

A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She is intelligent and has the top grades in her grade, but she is physically weak and not good at sports. She and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] have known each other since childhood and are classmates at the same high school. ==Appearance== Tokiko is a young girl with a long red hair braided in a tail. ==Personality== Tokiko seems to be in love with Mio. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Tokiko joins [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] to visit the Summer Festival with them. Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Tokiko remains in the car with Ginjiro and Mio. She had let Shadow Mio copy her and join the group. Tokiko also wanted Shadow Mio to learn everything about her and her feelings. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. When Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, she no longer can fight and Tokiko comes with the two shadows and helps her fight Shide. However, things don't go well and Tokiko barely escape thanks to Ginjiro and Tetsu. She manages to follow Shadow Mio's trace and finds Shinpei with her. As Tokiko is fatally injured, before she dies, she tells Shinpei to save Ryunosuke and Hizuru on Torajima. Shadow Mio then scan her memories and show them to Shinpei, who decides to restart the loop. ===9th Loop=== Knowing how Hizuru would fight, Shide easily defeats her. Tokiko attacks with the a stray shadow, but Shide easily kills the shadow. Shinpei then comes and Haine decides to leave. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio, while the group is in Tokiko's stray shadow inside the Hiruko Cave. They proceed towards Hiruko's main body, but on their way, they face a shadow who shoot out teeth and attempts to pin the stray with them. Tokiko breaks part of the cave to create a wall from the debris and decides to stay and fight the shadow with her stray, while the group proceeds towards Hiruko. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

He is the eldest son of Hishigata Clinic, the only hospital on Hitogashima, and is studying to become a doctor. He has a strong sense of justice and regrets that he was present at the scene of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s maritime accident but was unable to prevent it. He has confessed his feelings to [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] twice in the past and was rejected. ==Appearance== Sou is a young man with messy brown hair and brown eyes. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== At [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Sou hugs Shinpei and apologizes for not being able to help her. He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ===3rd Loop=== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ===4th Loop=== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori.

There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Sou agrees. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko gives him first aid and then Sou takes over, not wanting him to die before answering for what he did. Seido awakens, but wants Tokiko to kill them, so that Heine can gain his trust again. As Tokiko refuses, because the shadows had betrayed them, Seido takes the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko turns into Shadow Mio and stops him. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything. Heine wanted to return to her world, and Seido, Chitose, Sou and Tokiko would going her as shadows> Seido also reveals that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido shows Sou, Chitose's ashes, as he couldn't give her body to Heine to eat. He reveals that she died from a heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that is days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believe it will be too much for Sou to bear all this and he values life, and that's why he chose his sister as successor. Next day, the group is split in two teams and Sou is left with Mio and Shadow Mio to wait at the Kofune restaurant. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Ginjiro then realizes why they went right away for his rifle and also knew his location. Believing they don't have a chance, he wants them to run, but Shinpei refuses to leave Hizuru. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

He serves [[Heine|Haine]] and wants to help her revive her. According to Heine, he is greed incarnate. He is also known as the four armed shadow or initially though to be a shadow parent by [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. His real name is '''Shidehiko Hishigata''', who married Haine and took her surname Karikiri. As their child was actually a clone of him, he made Haine transfers his personality and memories into him and kept getting reborn over and over. Currently he assumes the identity of [[Masahito Karikiri]], a supposed descendant of Shidehiko. ==Appearance== Shide has the form of a large tall man with four arms and four eyes. A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them. Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot. Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must be the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he has it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] enter a cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Haine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Haine, the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Haine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree on them dragging Mio into this, but the shadow parent states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow parent is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow parent states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he hasn't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he loses sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow parent then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up, along with Hizuru, who shoots the shadow parent in the head and frees Shinpei. She then attempts to kill Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield and protects him, while also shoots and kills Hizuru. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu as well. He notes that they almost lost Shinpei, but then sees that Shinpei drank a poison to kill himself. Haine attempts to reprogram Ushio, but Ushio starts turning her corrosion back at her. She tells the shadow parent to kill Ushio, but before he is able to, Shinpei dies and takes Ushio with him, looping them back in time. ===5th Loop=== The shadow parent goes to Shiori's house and when Ryunosuke attacks, he fights him. He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Haine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow parent states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who tries to pin him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow, The shadow parent - Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send Shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Shadow Mio goes to take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making Haine wonder what Shadow Mio is doing. Haine then sees Shadow Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with [[Asako Kobayakawa|Asako]] jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive.

Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. After they go through the portal, he uses Hiruko's memory of the WWII air bombing to recreate it into Hiruko's world, Tokoyo, as her memories are connected to it. He bombs Ushio and her group, but Haine, the little girl's personality is with them and helps them stop the bombing. Ushio then comes and attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconcious == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows.

He is soft-spoken and easy to talk to, but his long stories are his weak point. ==Appearance== Masahito is an young adult man with medium long light brown hair. He wears glasses and is usually in his priest uniform. ==Personality== ==Plot== Masahito performs the funeral of [[Ushio Kofune]] and calls [[Shinpei Ajiro]] to help with the procession. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, at the funeral, Masahito recognizes [[Hizuru Minakata]], even though its been fourteen years. She asks him if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and he confirms. He wonders why she came back, but as she was replying, he interrupts her, guessing she studied for being a teacher or doctor. Hizuru gets annoyed and tells him she remembered why she couldn't stand him. Masahito then calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. At the funeral crematorium, Shinpei asks him if he knows about the shadow sickness and Masahito confirms as it was his grandfather who named it. As he describes the woman on the boat, Masahito guesses he is talking about Hizuru. === 7th Loop === Shinpei goes to speak with Masahito at the shrine. They talk about video games and then Shinpei tells him about the Swamp Man novel, where the protagonist gets replaced by a perfect copy and no one notices. He then retells the Hiruko legend and how the shadow sickness started with the whale that washed ashore, turning to a girl and ate it. Masahito laughs at Shinpei for thinking the shadows are real, but Shinpei throws pictures at him, telling him that he very well knows its true as Masahito was there. Masahito sees a 70 years old picture with him on it, and a 40 years old picture with him, Haine and their child. Shinpei wonders if he should call him Shidehiko Hishigata and that he is a human-shadow hybrid. Masahito then explains that during the famine in 1732, they turned hundred of the islanders into shadows and that way they needed less food to survive, which he believes saved the island. Ushio gets angry and asks him about Shinpei's parents. Masahito then explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public, so he had to kill them, but wonders if they would have been happier if he made them shadows. Masahito notes that Shinpei probably wonders why his arm isn't injured. Ushio unable to take it anymore, shows up and kills Masahito. Moments later, another Masahito who turns into [[Shide]] comes out and kills both Ushio and Shinpei. === 8th Loop === Haine contacts Hizuru and Mio, while having copied Shinpei, and arranges a meeting with them at different locations. She sends one Masahito at Alain's garden, while another takes with her. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. As they fight, Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, Ryunosuke is then able to take control on part of it and creates his own shadow. With half of his armor got, Masahito can no longer maintain his Shide form. Meanwhile, Shinpei and shadow Mio face the other Masahito, who informs them that they are too late and Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. He suggest Mio to kill Shinpei, so that he restarts the loop, but Mio instead cuts Masahito's head, who then states they will meet in the next loop. Shinpei then receives information about the fight with Hizuru and decides to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Figuring that Shide has no idea from where Shinpei came, Shinpei loops back. === 10th Loop === Haine realizes that Shinpei looped back and is located in the Hiruko cave and they head towards him with Masahito. They reach them at the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays behind to stop them while the barrier closes. Shide and Haine later still manage to catch up to Shinpei. While Shide fights Ushio, Haine tells him how to dodge, but Shinpei tricks Haine and injures her. Without Haine, Ushio kills Shide immediately. A second Shide appears, but as Ushio punches Hiruko's main body, his mud armor falls off and he is killed by Mio. == Etymology == * The name '''Masahito''' means "real, genuine" (真) ('''ma'''), "sand, grit" (砂) ('''sa''') and "person" (人) ('''hito'''). * Masahito's surname '''Karikiri''' means "goose/wild goose" (雁) ('''kari''') and "cut/cutoff/off, be sharp, ardent, eager, acute, keen" (切) ('''kiri''').

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine|Haine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with his memories, allowing them to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, the data of taste requires them to consume the subject directly, which action leaves black stains behind. The shadows are capable of two types of copying: transformation and childbirth. When transforming, they replicate something with their body. While with childbirth, they split off part of their body to create a new shadow. Heine can give childbirth many times, but the children she makes can only give birth to one human shadow, and those grand-children cannot give birth, however, all shadows can transform repeatedly. Whether is childbirth or transformation, they need to erase the original human within a week or the shadows will turn into mud and vanish. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital.

Ushio and Shinpei's right eyes resonate. Shide, who was surely defeated, appears before their eyes again like an immortal. Shide keenly senses the new awakening of Ushio's "observer eye" and invites them to the place for a decisive battle to take it away. Shinpei and Ushio firmly join hands and push forward into the darkness that has been opened up. ==Summary== Seeing Hiruko turning to a small baby and is no missing both eyes, [[Shide]] throws her away, no needing her anymore as he doesn't believe she can recover anymore. He sees her eye went to Ushio and states that if he steals it, he can still achieve his wish. Hiruko tells him that she can still recover if she eats a lot of humans and if he gets her eye back from Ushio, but Shide is no longer interested in her. [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] both get angry and head towards him. Shide notes that he can't let Hiruko die as his mud armor will disappear and per her wish, he will take her to her home with him. He then splits Hiruko in half and opens a dimensional portal, while Hiruko doesn't wish to return with this body. Shide then enters, inviting Shinpei to come and settle things. The portal then starts sucking in people. Ushio tries to stop Shinpei, telling him that if he enters, he won't ever come back and will be lost forever, and wishes to go in alone. As Shinpei refuses to leave her, Ushio asks Ryunosuke to get Shinpei out of here, however, Ryunosuke wants to keep his promise to his sister and save Haine. Shinpei tells Ushio that he will always follow her and that he loves her, and wishes to be with her. Shinpei and Ushio then enter the portal, which closes after them. Shinpei wakes up in Haine's world. He sees the edge of it and realized that at the edge the flow of time gets cut off. He realizes that time doesn't work in this world and he won't be able to loop if he dies. Shinpei decides to go looking for Ushio. Ryunosuke feels she is nearby and the rifle she printed still haven't disappeared. However, Shinpei is with an injured leg and Ryunosuke offers to take care of his body and share the pain with him. Taking control over his body, Ryunosuke and Shinpei continue looking for Ushio. As they look around, they feel the place looks similar to Hitogashima. They eventually hear singing and see a ball, which Shinpei recognizes as Haine's. As the ball starts moving, they start following it. They reach an old town where they see a Kobayakawa store and human-looking shadows, however, Ryunosuke notes that they don't seem hostile. The ball leads them a group of shadows, who then disappear and Shinpei sees Ushio in the middle. Ushio doesn't feel well and Haine comes out of her. Ryunosuke recalls Hizuru saying that since Ushio came out of Haine, a future may come where Ushio's personality is eliminated and Haine takes over, she will kill her, if not Ryunosuke should kill her. Ryunosuke prepares to shoot, but Shinpei stops him and Ushio states she is okay now. She explains that this isn't the Haine that killed Ryunosuke, and that back then Haine's personality split into the human girl, Haine, and Hiruko. Inside of Ushio is the little girl that became friends with Hizuru. Haine wants to talk with them and as they agree, Haine comes out. She explains she had a long dream, which was Ushio's memories. She apologizes for everyone that got involved with her and for those that died. Ryunosuke tells her there is no need to apologize as Hiruko ate him and the one to really blame is Shide for orchestrating it all. Haine explains that this is Tokoyo, the realm of the dead and where times doesn't flow. Haine points them out and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead in time and realize this was probably Shide's plan. Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and with it, he can transcend to an even higher dimension, where time and space will be at his command. Ushio then explains she read Shide's mind and he wants to destroy the world and just "turn it off" like a game. Suddenly a WWII air raid starts and Ushio protects them from the bombing. Shinpei tells them that if Shide plans on taking the eye and returning to the real world, that means there is a way for them to return as well. Haine states they need to kill Hiruko, and then Tokoyo will vanish too. Haine explains that the raid is from Hiruko's memories and Tokoyo is connected to her memories, although its a day Hiruko likely wishes to forget. Ushio then realizes that Shide is forcing Hiruko to relive that day. Haine explains she also have memories of that day and will try to suppress the memory for few moments, however, they should be careful of Shide's armor, whose armor can reflect any force directed at it. They need to erase Shide's armor first and Ushio is confident she can do it as she got a present from Mio. Haine then suppresses the memory and stops time. Ushio then jumps from a bomb to a bomb, heading up to the planes where Shide is. She jumps on his plane and slices him up, but realizes that there is no one inside of him. Shide then wonders if she figured his secret and as he reflects her hack, he attacks her leaving only her legs and eye behind. As he reaches for the eye, Ushio eats a fragment of a child Ushio and recovers in a child form, retaking her eye. She then jumps and touches Hiruko, hacking her and erasing the air raid memory. As they fall, Ushio contacts Shinpei and tells him that Shide's real body is in the real world and is controlling his armor remotely through Hiruko. Shinpei wonders what is going on with the armor right now and Ushio notices that the part she erased, haven't recovered. Shinpei then states she can erase the entire armor. ==Characters== *[[Shide]] *[[Haine]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] [[Category:Episodes]] ab6c39877aab2affb4d849a6edbf69b81bed6dfa 1339 1334 2022-09-18T03:02:23Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = Eternal Night | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 23 | image = Episode 23 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Hanako Ueda | previousEpisode = [[Episode 22]] | nextEpisode = [[Episode 24]] |airDate = September 16, 2022 |storyboard = Hanako Ueda |adaptation = [[Chapter 125]] (p. 10-18)<br>[[Chapter 126]] (p. 1-10, 13-16)<br>[[Chapter 127]] (p. 1-7, 11-15)<br>[[Chapter 128]]<br>[[Chapter 129]]<br>[[Chapter 130]]<br>[[Chapter 131]] (p. 1-4, 8-20)<br>[[Chapter 132]] (p. 1-6) }}'''Eternal Night''' (常夜, ''Tokoyo'') is the 23rd episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Hiruko is still not defeated and a small part of her remains. Ushio and Shinpei's right eyes resonate. Shide, who was surely defeated, appears before their eyes again like an immortal. Shide keenly senses the new awakening of Ushio's "observer eye" and invites them to the place for a decisive battle to take it away. Shinpei and Ushio firmly join hands and push forward into the darkness that has been opened up. ==Summary== Seeing Hiruko turning to a small baby and is no missing both eyes, [[Shide]] throws her away, no needing her anymore as he doesn't believe she can recover anymore. He sees her eye went to Ushio and states that if he steals it, he can still achieve his wish. Hiruko tells him that she can still recover if she eats a lot of humans and if he gets her eye back from Ushio, but Shide is no longer interested in her. [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] both get angry and head towards him. Shide notes that he can't let Hiruko die as his mud armor will disappear and per her wish, he will take her to her home with him. He then splits Hiruko in half and opens a dimensional portal, while Hiruko doesn't wish to return with this body. Shide then enters, inviting Shinpei to come and settle things. The portal then starts sucking in people. Ushio tries to stop Shinpei, telling him that if he enters, he won't ever come back and will be lost forever, and wishes to go in alone. As Shinpei refuses to leave her, Ushio asks Ryunosuke to get Shinpei out of here, however, Ryunosuke wants to keep his promise to his sister and save Haine. Shinpei tells Ushio that he will always follow her and that he loves her, and wishes to be with her. Shinpei and Ushio then enter the portal, which closes after them. Shinpei wakes up in Haine's world. He sees the edge of it and realized that at the edge the flow of time gets cut off. He realizes that time doesn't work in this world and he won't be able to loop if he dies. Shinpei decides to go looking for Ushio. Ryunosuke feels she is nearby and the rifle she printed still haven't disappeared. However, Shinpei is with an injured leg and Ryunosuke offers to take care of his body and share the pain with him. Taking control over his body, Ryunosuke and Shinpei continue looking for Ushio. As they look around, they feel the place looks similar to Hitogashima. They eventually hear singing and see a ball, which Shinpei recognizes as Haine's. As the ball starts moving, they start following it. They reach an old town where they see a Kobayakawa store and human-looking shadows, however, Ryunosuke notes that they don't seem hostile. The ball leads them a group of shadows, who then disappear and Shinpei sees Ushio in the middle. Ushio doesn't feel well and Haine comes out of her. Ryunosuke recalls Hizuru saying that since Ushio came out of Haine, a future may come where Ushio's personality is eliminated and Haine takes over, she will kill her, if not Ryunosuke should kill her. Ryunosuke prepares to shoot, but Shinpei stops him and Ushio states she is okay now. She explains that this isn't the Haine that killed Ryunosuke, and that back then Haine's personality split into the human girl, Haine, and Hiruko. Inside of Ushio is the little girl that became friends with Hizuru. Haine wants to talk with them and as they agree, Haine comes out. She explains she had a long dream, which was Ushio's memories. She apologizes for everyone that got involved with her and for those that died. Ryunosuke tells her there is no need to apologize as Hiruko ate him and the one to really blame is Shide for orchestrating it all. Haine explains that this is Tokoyo, the realm of the dead and where times doesn't flow. Haine points them out and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead in time and realize this was probably Shide's plan. Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and with it, he can transcend to an even higher dimension, where time and space will be at his command. Ushio then explains she read Shide's mind and he wants to destroy the world and just "turn it off" like a game. Suddenly a WWII air raid starts and Ushio protects them from the bombing. Shinpei tells them that if Shide plans on taking the eye and returning to the real world, that means there is a way for them to return as well. Haine states they need to kill Hiruko, and then Tokoyo will vanish too. Haine explains that the raid is from Hiruko's memories and Tokoyo is connected to her memories, although its a day Hiruko likely wishes to forget. Ushio then realizes that Shide is forcing Hiruko to relive that day.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup. For outfit, she wears a black tank top and a black jacket as outerwear. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

A fierce battle starts against Shide and Shinpei, Ryunosuke and Ushio fight to protect each other. As Ushio needs two minutes to complete her hacking preparations, the other two try to survive against Shide, time which feels like eternity. ==Summary== [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] unconscious and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] captures her. [[Haine]] explains that she can't recover fully from the strand of hair and that's why she is reverting into a kid form. She mind and muscle are torn up and Ushio can no longer fight. Shinpei wonders if Ryunosuke can take over [[Shide]]'s armor, but then states its too risky. Ushio awakens and talks to them telepathy, and states she can print hacking shells for the shotgun, but it will take two minutes to print and they need to survive until then. Shide realizes they are forming a plan, but Heine explains he can't hear them or transform. He didn't expect Heine to betray him, but she states he changed. Shide denies that he changed, and states he was enlighten and now follows his own desire to survive. Shide then attacks, ignoring that Shinpei is shooting at him, as the bullets do nothing to him. As he aims for Ushio, Shinpei asks her to switch weapons and she gives him Hizuru's sledgehammer and he hits Shide with him and stops him. Shide forces Hiruko to print him an old gun, however as he can't shoot with two right hands, he shifts one of them to become a left arm. As they fight, Shide attempts to attack Ushio. To stop him, Ryunosuke overdoes it and punches Shide, breaking Shinpei's fingers, but pushing Shide away from Ushio. Shide then shoots at them and Ryunosuke dodges, however the bullet then turns into Shide and from behind, he cuts Shinpei's left arm. They continue to dodge Shide's attack, but barely and still get slight injuries. Ryunosuke no longer believes they can even shoot the shotgun, even if Ushio prints the shells. Shinpei encourages him and states he will shoot. He asks Ryunosuke if he can take control over Shide for a moment and make him stop, about ten seconds before Ushio prints the shells. Ryunosuke agrees, but states he need to make contact. As they fight, Ryunosuke still manages to dodge Shide's attacks and eventually touches him and takes control over the armor. Without Ryunosuke, Shinpei almost passes out as he now feels all the pain that Ryunosuke was suppressing. Ushio prepares the shotgun, but in that moment, Shide isolates Ryunosuke to a piece of mud and throws him away, regaining control of his armor. Shide explains that in one of the loops at the battle on the beach, Hizuru tried doing the same thing, but Shinpei didn't knew about it as he restarted the loop, and knowing what they are trying to do, was easy for Shide to counter them. Shinpei is a few steps from the shotgun, but he starts to disintegrate. He still tells Shide that he won't be having Ushio's eye as the fact that he still has the eye right now, means that she do gives it to him eventually. Shide states he just wants to live and had lived for 326 years by swapping bodies. However, as Haine weakened, he feared he lives his last live with Masahito's body. However, few months ago he decided that if he can't live to see the world until its end, he will then end it himself. Ushio manages to print herself as shells for the shotgun and tells Shinpei she is ready. He then runs towards it, and Shide attacks him. Shide is faster is about to reach Shinpei before he reaches the shotgun, however, Heine manages to move the shotgun towards Shinpei and he grabs it. He then manages to dodge Shide and shoots him. As he gets erased, Shide in the real world panics as he is too old to move or see without the armor. Ushio turns to normal and takes Hiruko, who is in pain. She tells her she will erase her pain and as she starts erasing her, all are suddenly transferred on Hitogashima. Haine realizes this is the human world, but 300 years ago and are there just as data. They see a whale on the beach and the human Haine approaching it. Ryunosuke realizes that Hiruko is trying to transfer her data into her past self and start all over again. Ryunosuke tries to stop the girl Haine, but he goes past her. Shinpei then grabs her hand and tells her to not approach the god, which causes Haine to panic as she thinks she is seeing a ghost and runs away. Ryunosuke figures that its because of his awakened eye that he can touch and change the past. Hiruko still tries to reach for the whale. Ushio then gives Hiruko to Shinpei and goes to the whale. She explains she understand it now and the Hiruko is telling her she needs to erase the whale Hiruko or things will still play out exactly the same. Hiruko didn't want to try again as Ryunosuke stated, but to end it all, which is why she brought Ushio here. Hiruko cries, but as Ushio erases the whale, she calms down and disappears. Haine also starts to disappear and thanks them. She asks Ryunosuke if she is reborn if they can become friends and Ryunosuke agrees and the two disappear. Ushio is the next to disappear. Shinpei states he wants to go with her. All the shadows will disappear, along with his eye. If he returns to his body, he will likely die and prefers to just disappear with Ushio. However, Ushio refuses and states she will return him safely as everyone is waiting for him. The past few days where full of frights and worries, but Ushio was happy to be with Shinpei. Shinpei then states the same, but as he says it, Ushio disappears. Before completely disappears, Ushio explains she figured out how to transcend time. With this power, she decides to overcome the loops and redraw the summer. She then leaves the message on the phone and takes Shinpei to the boat when he arrived at Hitogashima, telling him to find her. Shinpei then wakes up, bumping into Hizuru at the boat. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Haine]] *[[Shide]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] [[Category:Episodes]]

It was his first return to "Hitogashima" in Wakayama City in two years. However, stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. Shinpei feels a little strange, but the time peacefully passes. The island comes alive with preparations for the summer festival, and Shinpei and Ushio are finally reunited. ==Summary== On July 22nd, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] wakes up on the boat that heads to Hitogashima. He sees [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] is sitting in front of him and cries, happy that she is alive and reveals her true identity. Shinpei then gets off the boat, he feels a deja vu that he has been recently here and wonders how he knew that Hizuru is Nagumo Ryunosuke. He sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] coming with a bike and prepares to stop her from falling into the sea, but she uses her brakes and stops. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] and [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] also show to greet him. Shinpei then wonders why he came back as he feels he was worried about them. Sou explains that he called him yesterday and told him that if he doesn't come, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] is gonna beat him up. While heading to the Kofune, Ushio sees them and rushes to punch Shinpei, but stops her fist. She tries to be casual and tells him that he decided to come back, but Shinpei states he came back because she left him a voice message. Shinpei listen to the voice message from Ushio, and she asks him to come during the summer festival, and threatens to beat him up. However, she calls him "Ajiro", which makes him recall a dream he had where someone told him the island would disappear. Shinpei then decided to head to Hitogashima to see for himself if everyone is okay. Shinpei goes to the store, where he sees [[Shiori Kobayakawa|Shiori]] and some other kids, who are surprised to see him back and explain that Ushio was right as she kept repeating that Shinpei was coming back. Shinpei then heads to the Hito Shrine, where he sees Iwao Karikiri, who introduces him to his son Yamato, wondering if Shinpei remembers him and Shinpei confirms. Iwao is happy that nothing bad had happened this year, but Yamato recalls that Ushio lost her pendant on the beach the other day and have spend days searching it. Shinpei hears the waves and excuses himself and heads towards the beach. At the beach, Shinpei sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains the other day she had a dream of losing Shinpei and didn't want the last time they saw each other to be when he left for Tokyo, and that's why she called. She then acts of catching his shadow and so does Shinpei. He then notices the seashell pendant and Ushio is happy to get it back, explaining she lost it two days ago while cleaning the beach. Shinpei then puts the pendant back on her neck. On July 24th, at Kofune Restaurant, Hizuru signs a copy of her book for Shinpei. He reveals that he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then considers its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke enters with his wife, Asako, and daughters, Shiori and Haine. Haine greets and thanks Hizuru for the present for her birthday, and notes that tomorrow is Ushio's birthday. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new book and despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru doesn't want to tell him about her new book and instead wants to learn more about his dream as she finds his story interesting. In the evening, at the festival, Sou asks Shinpei to give him strength and Shinpei realizes he still likes Mio. Shinpei then sees Hizuru, who is writing her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement as Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Ushio calls Shinpei, asking him where he is and hearing about Sou, she states she knows that he loves Mio and that he already confessed last year and she turned him down. Sou again confesses to Mio, who wonders what he likes about her. Shinpei heads to the beach to meet with Ushio, after buying her takoyaki as she requested. However, Ushio is disappointed at how little he brought as they had a promise. As she tries to remember the promise, she and Shinpei remember it at the same time that he promised to buy her 10 or 100 when she was sneaking at the shadows only door in the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes Shinpei back. The next day, everyone celebrates Ushio's 18th birthday. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Shiori Kobayakawa]] *Iwao Karikiri *Yamato Karikiri *[[Ryunosuke Minakata]] *Haine *[[Seido Hishigata]] *Chitose Nezu [[Category:Episodes]] 1c535b5e3a69518c304b81c30d48115836fc4a96 1403 1394 2022-09-30T19:56:58Z TheMCAvenger13 50569119 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = I'm Home | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 25 | image = Episode 25 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director =Toshihiro Maeya | previousEpisode = [[Episode 24]] | nextEpisode = |airDate = September 30, 2022 |storyboard =Ayumu Watanabe |adaptation = [[Chapter 138]] (p. 35-37)<br>[[Chapter 139]] }}'''I'm Home''' (ただいま, ''Tadaima'') is the 25th and final episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== On a new July 22, Shinpei woke up on the boat.

Hiruko-sama was Heine, a girl in kimono whom the "big shadow" who appeared at the Hitogashima Shrine on the day of the summer festival, had called her "Mother". Tokiko works with the "shadows" and tries to thwart the plans of Shinpei and his friends. The "big shadow" appears and has Mio as hostage. The "Big Shadow" plans to keep Shinpei alive while they were preparing for the day of the summer festival. ==Summary== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] meets [[Heine]] and sees it as a chance to learn what she intends to do at the Summer Festival. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] explains that the appearance of Hiruko is the first human she copied, [[Heine]], and prefers to be called by that name. She is the God of Hitogashima, Hiruko no Mikoto and mother of Shadows. Lately she is having issue walking and needed a body replacement. Heine turns to [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and asks Shinpei how many times have they met. Shinpei realizes she was the one that killed Ushio and has been in front of him the entire time. As Shinpei yells, Heine reaches for him with shadow hands. Tokiko tells her she mustn't, and Heine stops, explainable that his voice is so loud and its painful. She can kill him at any time, but likes to eat in silence and he must not speak. Tokiko calls in Negoro, a nurse that works at their clinic. Tokiko explains that on average four people die on Hitogashima every year and they feed the dead to Heine. Her family have been doing it as long as it existed. Negoro brings two coffins. In one of them its Tadashi Miura, but in the other is Ushio. Tokiko explains that they burned a fake body and the bones they collected were printed by Heine. Shinpei asks Tokiko if she knew that they were after Shiori and Ushio. Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Heine proceeds and flashes to eat Tadashi Miura. She then turns towards Ushio. Shinpei knows that Shadows can't move for a few seconds while they scan. As Heine prepares to scan Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print it now. She then prints a nail gun in his hands and she shoots at the baby-like shadows, freeing Ushio. Shadow Ushio then jumps in and takes Ushio's body and scans her to regenerate her arm. Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Heine had enough, she causes Shadow Negoro to transform into more muscular form and go after Shinpei, but Ushio jumps in and starts fighting her. As Ushio regenerates her hand, she punches Negoro's shadow and kills her. Shinpei gets close to Heine and prepares to shoot her, but the nail gun and his fingers get cut. She Shadow parent had cut Shinpei's fingers and stands behind Shinpei. He tells Heine to stop as she was preparing to eat Shinpei. Heine is annoyed as the stole her food. The shadows tells Heine that he will take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio but tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. The shadow warns the rest that if they move, he will kill Mio. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] is still alive, but badly injured. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up and Ryunosuke switches to Hizuru, who asks where is Mio. Tetsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. Heine orders Ushio to come slowly. Shinpei tells her to eat him, since she wants to eat humans, but Heine rips his right eye. Heine states that to be able to defeat Negoro, Ushio had become much stronger and would be a waste to just erase her, so she will reprogram her as they would need her help tomorrow. Heine starts to overtake Ushio. Shinpei yells asking her to stop. His right eye then returns to him, making Heine realize its impossible to take his power. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu shows up, and a moment later Hizuru blows the shadow's head, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield, blocking the bullet and also shoots at Hizuru, hitting her in the head and killing her. The shadow then shoots Tetsu and kills him. The shadow starts to regenerate, mentioning it almost lost Shinpei, however, there is no one left to interfere. Shinpei thanks Hizuru and Tetsu, revealing he had a bottle with poison, which he drank already. Ushio recalls earlier that Shinpei told them that he will kill himself with mercuric chloride if one of then gets injured with no hope of recovery. As Shinpei is dying from the poison, the shadow guesses he must have died many times to be this prepared. Shinpei tells him, he will keep doing it, until he defeats them. Heine tells the shadow to look at Ushio, as she started to reverse her corrosion. She even started returning the corrosion back at her. Heine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill Heine. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but Shinpei takes her and starts looping back with her. As they loop back, Shinpei tells Ushio that they will defeat the shadows, even if it costs him his life. Shinpei loops back at the moment he meets Hizuru and Ginjiro and Hizuru guessing he is a time traveler. In that moment, Ushio also materializes next to Shinpei, holding his hand and Shinpei states they just returned from the future. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Heine]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *Negoro *Tadashi Miura *[[Shide]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 8cd465bc5b78ebfe4d71ff8ccfb5acd74a317d02 0 221 1384 1357 2022-09-23T19:29:19Z Unok 3544775 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Shinpei Ajiro | image = Shinpei Ajiro.png | imagecaption = | aliases =Shin-chan (by Mio Kofune) Shinpei <br/>Shinpei-kun | relatives = Akemi Ajiro (mother, deceased)<br/>Toru Ajiro (father, deceased)<br/>[[Alain Kofune]] (adoptive parent) <br/>[[Mio Kofune]] (childhood friend) <br/>[[Ushio Kofune]] (childhood friend/ love interest) | affiliation =High school | occupation =Student | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = Human | gender = Male | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = Natsuki Hanae | appearsin = | debut = |age=17}}'''Shinpei Ajiro''' (網代 慎平, ''Ajiro Shinpei'') is a 17-year-old boy who returned to his hometown of Hitogashima for the first time in two years to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, [[Ushio Kofune]]. Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship too Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

He serves [[Heine|Haine]] and wants to help her revive her. According to Heine, he is greed incarnate. He is also known as the four armed shadow or initially though to be a shadow parent by [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. His real name is '''Shidehiko Hishigata''', who married Haine and took her surname Karikiri. As their child was actually a clone of him, he made Haine transfers his personality and memories into him and kept getting reborn over and over. Currently he assumes the identity of [[Masahito Karikiri]], a supposed descendant of Shidehiko. ==Appearance== Shide has the form of a large tall man with four arms and four eyes. A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them. Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot. Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must be the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he has it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] enter a cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Haine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Haine, the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Haine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree on them dragging Mio into this, but the shadow parent states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow parent is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow parent states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he hasn't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he loses sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow parent then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up, along with Hizuru, who shoots the shadow parent in the head and frees Shinpei. She then attempts to kill Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield and protects him, while also shoots and kills Hizuru. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu as well. He notes that they almost lost Shinpei, but then sees that Shinpei drank a poison to kill himself. Haine attempts to reprogram Ushio, but Ushio starts turning her corrosion back at her. She tells the shadow parent to kill Ushio, but before he is able to, Shinpei dies and takes Ushio with him, looping them back in time. ===5th Loop=== The shadow parent goes to Shiori's house and when Ryunosuke attacks, he fights him. He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Haine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow parent states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who tries to pin him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow, The shadow parent - Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send Shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Shadow Mio goes to take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making Haine wonder what Shadow Mio is doing. Haine then sees Shadow Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with [[Asako Kobayakawa|Asako]] jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. After they go through the portal, he uses Hiruko's memory of the WWII air bombing to recreate it into Hiruko's world, Tokoyo, as her memories are connected to it. He bombs Ushio and her group, but Haine, the little girl's personality is with them and helps them stop the bombing. Ushio then comes and attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. However, due to the injuries, Ushio cannot continue to fight. Shide then faces Shinpei, who is controlled by Ryunosuke and manages to cut his left arm and heavily injure him. Shinpei is still sure of his victory as he still has the eye, which means that eventually Ushio gives it to him. Shide states he just wants to live and had lived for 326 years by swapping bodies. However, as Haine weakened, he feared he lives his last live with Masahito's body. However, few months ago he decided that if he can't live to see the world until its end, he will then end it himself. Shide proceeds to attack Shinpei, but Shinpei manages to reach the shotgun. Unknown to Shide, Ushio had turned herself into shotgun shells and as Shinpei shoots him, he erases Shide's armor. At the same time, Shide in the real world is too old and cannot move or see without the armor and falls to the ground.

Haine then sees Shadow Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with [[Asako Kobayakawa|Asako]] jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. After they go through the portal, he uses Hiruko's memory of the WWII air bombing to recreate it into Hiruko's world, Tokoyo, as her memories are connected to it. He bombs Ushio and her group, but Haine, the little girl's personality is with them and helps them stop the bombing. Ushio then comes and attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. However, due to the injuries, Ushio cannot continue to fight. Shide then faces Shinpei, who is controlled by Ryunosuke and manages to cut his left arm and heavily injure him. Shinpei is still sure of his victory as he still has the eye, which means that eventually Ushio gives it to him. Shide states he just wants to live and had lived for 326 years by swapping bodies. However, as Haine weakened, he feared he lives his last live with Masahito's body. However, few months ago he decided that if he can't live to see the world until its end, he will then end it himself. Shide proceeds to attack Shinpei, but Shinpei manages to reach the shotgun. Unknown to Shide, Ushio had turned herself into shotgun shells and as Shinpei shoots him, he erases Shide's armor. At the same time, Shide in the real world is too old and cannot move or see without the armor and falls to the ground.

She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since Seido Hishigata may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Later, when the group finds Seido and teams up with him, outside the house, Shadow Mio talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio. Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. The next day, when Shinpei was leaving with Ushio to find and kill shadows, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk about when he returns. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Mio is happy to have let it out of her chest, but as she returns to her room, she cries over Tokiko's shoulder. Shadow Mio states that if they defeat Haine, Ushio will be gone and if Mio asked if she would have a chance then. However, Mio couldn't ask that and knows that Shinpei isn't a playboy. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

As Shinpei had planned, Ushio has made a complete comeback. Ushio tries to make a head-on breakthrough against the oncoming Masahito. However, Shinpei calmly stopped her. Shinpei asks Masahito and Haine, who confronted him from where do he think he came from? Haine and the others are astonished when they realize Shinpei's true "conviction". Shinpei points a gun at his head preparing to defeat Hiruko! ==Summary== [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] returns and attacks the shadows. [[Shide]] notices that his armor isn't recovering and realizes that Ushio had evolved again and she hacks you the moment her hair touches you. Ushio decide to take out Shide and jumps at him, who is prepared for him, but Shinpei call shadow Mio, who stops Ushio and shares Shinpei's plan. Shinpei asks Shide if he knows from where he came. As Shide isn't aware, Shinpei guesses that the handprint can't track him while he is in the stray shadow. He then places a gun on his head to restart the loop. [[Haine]] tells Shide to stop him, but with Ryunosuke's power, Shinpei sees that Shide shoots his arm and dodges it and still shoots himself. Earlier, [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] shows Shinpei on how to summon the stray shadow Guil. As he test it, the shadow falls on Sou, who ends up in the shadow. Sou explains that while inside, he couldn't see anything and Tokiko states its because Guil doesn't have eyes, but because of that his hearing is improved. While the group waits inside of Guil, Shinpei loops back with Ushio. As they step out of the stray, Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and that Shinpei planned to get Ushio and loop back to the cave. While they head towards Haine's main body, Shinpei is sure that Haine will make them their primal target and won't kill anyone on the surface until they deal with Shinpei's group. Shinpei's group then encounter a shadow, who is missing its top of the head and can shoot teeth. As the shadow had noticed Guil, it shoots two of its teeth in attempt to pin Guil. Tokiko controls Guil and breaks part of the cave, making a wall from the debris and tells the group to proceed without her as she stays with Guil to fight the shadow. Shinpei's group reach a black wall and Ushio realizes its the black mud. Ginjiro shoots it, but it just regenerates. Ushio decides to hack it, but seeing a bit into the future, Shinpei tells her to not touch it. The wall reverse Ushio's hacking and she loses 2 of her fingers, and makes Ushio realize the wall is part of Haine's main body. Shinpei had made Mio copy some fireworks and calls her, stating they will be blowing up the wall. After blowing it up, the group proceeds as the wall slowly closes up. Shinpei then notices Shide and tells Ginjiro to get down and they start shooting at Shide. The wall is almost closed, but Shide manages to get his head inside and Ginjiro shoots it with his shotgun. He tells Shinpei to proceed as he stays behind. A small part of Shide managed to get inside, but Ginjiro shoots it. Shinpei's group get closer to Haine's main body. Shinpei then hears a loud noise that causes him to feel his head will split. Ushio notes that he can sense shadows now. Mio explains that Haine is constantly emitting her shadow controlling signal. Before it felt like a smooth voice, but after Ushio hacked her, the voice is now awful, but she can easily turn off the sensation, however, since Shinpei is human, he can't ignore the signal. Ushio tells Shinpei to focus on her and as she glows, the banishes Haine's signal from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but by spinning her hair, Ushio creates a barrier and protects them. Haine shows up and notices that Shinpei feels off and as he closes his left eye, she senses Ryunosuke inside of him. Haine realizes this is why he is so confident as he now can fight them on his own. While Ushio and Shide fight, Shinpei doesn't use Ryunosuke's power to guide Ushio as either way Haine will warn Shide, and attempts to lure Haine into their "kill zone" trap. While dodging, Haine feels Mio behind her, but senses her and dodges, noting that she can feel all shadows in the area and feels a copied nailgun, which she takes out, however as it was a distraction, Sou appears on her side and shoots the nail gun at her shadow. Haine realizes that Sou had Ginjiro's original gun and she attacked the printed gun, which was a trap. Mio then attacks and slashes her, but Haine tries to focus to warn Shide of what will happen in the next two seconds. She is unable to and Ushio punches Shide, smashing his head. However, a second Shide then comes in. Ushio heads towards Haine's main body, feeling her pain and sadness, knowing she wants to go home with her loved ones. Haine yells Ushio to stop, who recalls her teacher telling her that her hands are not for hurting, but helping others. Ushio proceeds and punches Haine's main body. Shide's mud armor immediately dissolves, making him realize Haine was defeated. Mio then immediately stabs him in the head, saying that if Haine dies, so will she and then starts disappearing. Ushio states she can't stop crying and Shinpei sees that her right eye turned red. A red light appears and Shinpei's right eye starts to hurt. Mio is still alive and states that Haine must be alive too and that Ushio probably held herself back. Another Shide then appears. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Shide]] *[[Haine]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] ffe5eb3c81db0f0a6953022064972c15ab7bf63e 0 514 1391 1047 2022-09-30T13:34:59Z 180.241.44.98 0 I have no idea is that correct or not wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Ryunosuke Minakata | image = Ryunosuke Minakata.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = [[Hizuru Minakata]] (older twin sister) [[Asako Kobayakawa]] (wife) [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] (daughter) [[Haine]] (daughter) | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = | gender = Male | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = Yuuko Sanpei | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Ryunosuke Minakata''' (南方 竜之介, ''Minakata Ryūnosuke'') is the younger twin brother of [[Hizuru Minakata]].

He marries Asako and has two daughters Shiori and Haine. On July 24th, after the party for Haine's birthday, he and his family visit the Kofune restaurant.

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Ginjiro then realizes why they went right away for his rifle and also knew his location. Believing they don't have a chance, he wants them to run, but Shinpei refuses to leave Hizuru. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Ginjiro lives his normal life, helping out cleaning the beach and later visits the festival with his wife. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

He is the eldest son of Hishigata Clinic, the only hospital on Hitogashima, and is studying to become a doctor. He has a strong sense of justice and regrets that he was present at the scene of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s maritime accident but was unable to prevent it. He has confessed his feelings to [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] twice in the past and was rejected. ==Appearance== Sou is a young man with messy brown hair and brown eyes. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== At [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Sou hugs Shinpei and apologizes for not being able to help her. He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ===3rd Loop=== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ===4th Loop=== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. ===6th Loop=== Sou along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Sou agrees. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko gives him first aid and then Sou takes over, not wanting him to die before answering for what he did. Seido awakens, but wants Tokiko to kill them, so that Heine can gain his trust again. As Tokiko refuses, because the shadows had betrayed them, Seido takes the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko turns into Shadow Mio and stops him. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything. Heine wanted to return to her world, and Seido, Chitose, Sou and Tokiko would going her as shadows> Seido also reveals that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido shows Sou, Chitose's ashes, as he couldn't give her body to Heine to eat. He reveals that she died from a heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that is days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believe it will be too much for Sou to bear all this and he values life, and that's why he chose his sister as successor. Next day, the group is split in two teams and Sou is left with Mio and Shadow Mio to wait at the Kofune restaurant. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Sou and the rest meet up with Shinpei as he arrives at Hitogashima. Last year, Sou confessed to Mio, but she turned him down. This year, on 24th, they go to the festival, where Sou again confesses his feelings to Mio and she asks him what he likes about her. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Hizuru Minakata is the woman who met Shinpei on the ferry and told him the name "Ryunosuke Nagumo". Hitogashima was her hometown too, and she had returned home for the first time in 14 years in order to unravel a mysterious message left on her cell phone. Hizuru learns of the existence of "Shadows" and "Heine," and joins up with Ginjiro, a hunter, to discover that many of the islanders have been replaced by Shadows. ==Summary== Arriving on Hitogashima, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] is about to step on a man's shadow, but the shadow moves avoiding being stepped on, making Hizuru realize that the man is a Shadow and the message she got is now much more believable. She then sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] heading towards [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] calling him "Shin" and wonders if he is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru sees a notification about [[Ushio Kofune]]'s funeral and recognizing the Kofune name, she decides to attend it. There, even after fourteen years, [[Masahito Karikiri]] recognizes Hizuru, who steps on his shadow and confirms that he isn't one of them. Hizuru wonders if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and Masahito confirms, saying there was an accident yesterday. He wonders why she came back, but then interrupts Hizuru trying to guess that she studied for a teacher or doctor, but that only annoys Hizuru who states she remembered why she can't stand him. Masahito calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. Alain remembers Hizuru and is surprised to see her. Hizuru recalls that during her second year of middle school, she was a frequent visitor at Kofune restaurant. Alain had two daughters and his wife passed away after giving birth to Mio. She would meet Ushio there and would sometimes tell Ushio her original stories. Alain receives a call from Mio, who tells him that she and Shinpei fell into the ocean and will be a bit later. Overhearing that, Hizuru asks about Shinpei, and Alain explains its his best friend's son, Shinpei Ajiro, who he took in. Masahito explains that about ten years ago, both of his parents died in a boating accident. Hearing that, Hizuru realizes that the boy sitting in front of her on the boat was Shinpei and she decides to avoid him for now. Alain follows her and tells Hizuru about Ushio's marks on the neck. Hizuru asks if they checked under her nails for blood or skin, but Alain says they didn't check. Alain wonders if this case reminds Hizuru of Ryuunosuke's death fourteen years ago. Hizuru then returns to Ushio's coffin and opens it, to check her neck. She asks who dressed the body and Alain tells her it was a nurse from the Hishigata Clinic. Hizuru starts leaving, but asks Alain if before Ushio's death, she mentioned she saw her doppleganger. Asako Isokane recognizes Hizuru, an old fried of her, who was visiting the Kofune restaurant with her. Asako explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa|Shiori]] during the accident. However, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot. Seeing the rest of the Kobayakawa's, Hizuru gets angry for the shadows acting like they care for Ushio. Hizuru reveals to [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. As they are growing in numbers, Ginjiro states that one of them has the ability to produce more Shadows. Hizuru guesses that a Shadow was drowning Shiori and killed and erased her, but then played and acted like she was the one drowning, and then killed and replaced the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives Ginjiro her second phone and tells him to contact her if it rings. Shinpei reaches the funeral, and decides to repeat all the conversations he had. He tells Shiori that she probably saw a Shadow and to keep away from duplicate if she sees her again. A bit later, Asako mentions that Shinpei told Shiori about "Shadows" and he confirms its something he heard from Mio when they were young. In that moment, Shinpei notices an ant walking over Asako's and her husband's shadows and they avoiding being stepped on by the ant, and realizes they are already Shadows. As they leave, Mio approaches him and Shinpei asks her if yesterday she was with white panties. Mio is shocked that its the first thing he asks her after two years. Shinpei recalls that he managed to see Mio's panties when she killed him, but today she is wearing blue and white stripped panties. Mio confirms it and he realizes she was copied yesterday. Elsewhere, Shadow Mio produces a shadow with Alain memories, and learns that he too doesn't know where Ushio is. At 1:30PM, Ushio's casket enters the furnace and after collecting her remains, everyone have a lunch in a special room. Shinpei plans to ask two questions those he suspects. The first is if they had heard about shadow sickness and second if they had seen a well-endowed lady. As he asks around, Alain tells him that's Hizuru and gives him a note she gave him, when he asked her about her contact info. Shinpei recognizes the text as being a code from her book Adrift. After cracking it, Shinpei calls the phone number and Ginjiro picks up. After Shinpei introduces himself, Ginjiro does the same and states he is an acquaintance to Hizuru. As Shinpei is in the crematorium, Ginjiro tells him to go back alone to the funeral hall. Getting there, Ginjiro tells him to stand still and shoot at Shinpei's shadow. At the same time, Alain had went to the bathroom. Hizuru follows him and puts "maintenance" note on the stall he enters and goes into the other. A shadow Alain then comes and as he opens her stall, she smashes the shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills the Shadow Alain. Hizuru then receives a call from Ginjiro. After confirming Shinpei isn't a shadow, Ginjiro invites him to the fourth battery. As he meets Ginjiro there, Ginjiro tells him that he has some questions. Ginjiro notes that to solve the code you need to know the author, Ryuunosuke Nagumo, and her real name. However, Hizuru haven't told anyone else except Ginjiro that she is Ryuunosuke. Which would mean, no one could call the phone unless there is a Shadow that copied Hizuru, however Shinpei is human. Hizuru appears and Shinpei gives her his copy of Swampman and asks her for an autograph and to write his name Shinpei Ajiro. As he had said his name in front of her, he wonders what will happen now. Hizuru notes that he isn't normal and signs his book. She then tells him to correct her if the next thing is false. She notes that he didn't knew who she was on the boat and that there is no way to know her identity unless she revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *Asako Isokane/Asako Kobayakawa *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Shiori Kobayakawa]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 6772451422c64801d6d472dd448fa00ec638af7a 0 554 1407 1187 2022-10-02T22:54:06Z Leo Kain 10561420 /* History */ wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character|name=Asako Kobayaka|gender=Female}} '''Asako Kobayakawa''' (小早川<!-- Hiragana for Asako -->,''Kobayakawa Asako'') is the mother of [[Shiori Kobayakawa|Shiori]] and is the owner of the Koba Mart. ==Appearance== ==Personality== ==History== 1st Loop 2nd Loop 3rd Loop 4th Loop 5th Loop 6th Loop 7th Loop 8th Loop 9th Loop 10th Loop 11th Loop In the 11th Loop Shadows did not exist so She Married Ryunosuke instead of her original husband, they had 2 Children Shiori and Haine, After Her Daughter Haine's Birthday Party she went to the Kofune Restaraunt with her Family and was surprised to see that her Best Friend Hizuru was acquainted with Shinpei, Alan told her that they had met on the Ferry.

He was killed by [[Heine]] and his data was accidentally send into Hizuru. ==Appearance== ==Personality== ==Plot== ===History=== Ryunosuke and Hizuru visit the Kofune restaurant for its anniversary. As its full, Hizuru wishes to go, but Asako stops her, sayings its the 10th anniversary of Kofune restaurant and she should celebrate with the rest. Asako wonders if Hizuru is in a bad mood and Ryunosuke states its his fault. She told him she made a friend, but she joked it must be a dream. Asako wonders where Hizuru met her new friend and Hizuru states Mt. Takanosu. At Hishigata's old clinic in the mountain. Hizuru takes Asako and Ryunosuke to meet her new friend. Hizuru explains that she always appears at the same time, but as they wait, no one shows up. Ryunosuke and Asako decide to leave, but Hizuru had promised to meet her friend today, so she decides to stay. Moments later, Heine shows up and Hizuru greets her. Months later, Asako and Ryunosuke check the Kobe mart, hearing that Hizuru brought snacks and intended to eat them with a friend, making them realize she is meeting Heine. Ryunosuke heads towards the clinic to bring some water to Hizuru. On his way, he hears something and goes to check it. He sees Heine, who was bloody and eating a small animal. Hizuru sees a flash and upon checking it, she finds Heine over the dead Ryunosuke. Hizuru wonders if she did it. Heine comes back to her sense, and turns into Ryunosuke.

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== Appearing mysterious and serious much like Hizuru, Nezu is a seasoned hunter with a good aim and one of the only people having some experience combating shadows. Though serious and calm outwardly, he hides emotional trauma of his wife turning into a shadow which he overcomes by finally slaying his wife's shadow, an act witnessed by Ushio He is also shown to be thoroughly acquainted with Hizuru, who considers him one of the only people on the island trustworthy enough. This camaraderie is later revealed to stem from Nezu being the one to help Hizuru when she was threatened by a berserk Haine who had killed Ryunosuke and one of the people whose shadow had been slain and now couldn't be copied again. ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Ginjiro then realizes why they went right away for his rifle and also knew his location. Believing they don't have a chance, he wants them to run, but Shinpei refuses to leave Hizuru. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Ginjiro lives his normal life, helping out cleaning the beach and later visits the festival with his wife. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== Appearing mysterious and serious much like [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]], Nezu is a seasoned hunter with a good aim and one of the only people having some experience combating shadows. Though serious and calm outwardly, he hides emotional trauma of his wife turning into a shadow which he overcomes by finally slaying his wife's shadow, an act witnessed by [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]. He is also shown to be thoroughly acquainted with [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]], who considers him one of the only people on the island trustworthy enough. This camaraderie is later revealed to stem from Nezu being the one to help Hizuru when she was threatened by a berserk [[Haine]] who had killed [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and one of the people whose shadow had been slain and now couldn't be copied again. ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Ginjiro then realizes why they went right away for his rifle and also knew his location. Believing they don't have a chance, he wants them to run, but Shinpei refuses to leave Hizuru. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Ginjiro lives his normal life, helping out cleaning the beach and later visits the festival with his wife. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup. For outfit, she wears a black tank top and a black jacket as outerwear. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup. For outfit, she wears a black tank top and a black jacket as outerwear. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him.

Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is an adult woman with long black hair and violet eyes with a large bust. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. Hizuru tall woman wearing a suit and glasses. She is well endowed and is stated to be a G cup. For outfit, she wears a black tank top and a black jacket as outerwear. ==Personality== Hizuzu compared to her younger twin brother is a bit deadpan and serious. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru.

Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru.

He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Her family owns the Koba Mart. She was saved from drowning by [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]], however, Ushio ended up drowning herself in that incident. ==Appearance== ==Personality== ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to [[Tetsu Totsumura]], however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Shiori helps with cleaning the beach. After Ushio sees her own shadow, she goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. On 21st, Shiori and other kids are at the beach for a swim. Hamaji makes fun of Shiori for using swim float and finds her lame that she can't swim. Shiori goes to Mio and asks her how to become a good swimmer like her and Mio decides to teach her. Ushio joins them, stating that she will be protecting Shiori, but she wonders what she means. While the group is being distracted by Akari, Shiori is dragged into the water by her Shadow, who starts to take her to the bottom. Ushio and her Shadow come to her help. Shadow Ushio manages to retake Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori still manages to immobilize them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori from them, but is then strangled by her. Shadow Ushio tries to reach the surface with Shiori, but Shadow Shiori catches up to them. She then attacks Shadow Ushio, realizing she is faulty and tries to fix her. However, as Mio and Sou are getting close, Shadow Shiori leaves Shadow Ushio sink to the bottom and erases Shiori, proceeding to act unconscious so that Mio and Sou save her. ==Plot== Shiori end up seeing her own shadow and told [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] that she saw a girl that looks like her.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside.

Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her.

Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo.

Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time.

Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version.

They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima.

Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again.

Ushio and Shinpei's right eyes resonate. Shide, who was surely defeated, appears before their eyes again like an immortal. Shide keenly senses the new awakening of Ushio's "observer eye" and invites them to the place for a decisive battle to take it away. Shinpei and Ushio firmly join hands and push forward into the darkness that has been opened up. ==Summary== Seeing Hiruko turning to a small baby and is no missing both eyes, [[Shide]] throws her away, no needing her anymore as he doesn't believe she can recover anymore. He sees her eye went to Ushio and states that if he steals it, he can still achieve his wish. Hiruko tells him that she can still recover if she eats a lot of humans and if he gets her eye back from Ushio, but Shide is no longer interested in her. [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] both get angry and head towards him. Shide notes that he can't let Hiruko die as his mud armor will disappear and per her wish, he will take her to her home with him. He then splits Hiruko in half and opens a dimensional portal, while Hiruko doesn't wish to return with this body. Shide then enters, inviting Shinpei to come and settle things. The portal then starts sucking in people. Ushio tries to stop Shinpei, telling him that if he enters, he won't ever come back and will be lost forever, and wishes to go in alone. As Shinpei refuses to leave her, Ushio asks Ryunosuke to get Shinpei out of here, however, Ryunosuke wants to keep his promise to his sister and save Haine. Shinpei tells Ushio that he will always follow her and that he loves her, and wishes to be with her. Shinpei and Ushio then enter the portal, which closes after them. Shinpei wakes up in Haine's world. He sees the edge of it and realized that at the edge the flow of time gets cut off. He realizes that time doesn't work in this world and he won't be able to loop if he dies. Shinpei decides to go looking for Ushio. Ryunosuke feels she is nearby and the rifle she printed still haven't disappeared. However, Shinpei is with an injured leg and Ryunosuke offers to take care of his body and share the pain with him. Taking control over his body, Ryunosuke and Shinpei continue looking for Ushio. As they look around, they feel the place looks similar to Hitogashima. They eventually hear singing and see a ball, which Shinpei recognizes as Haine's. As the ball starts moving, they start following it. They reach an old town where they see a Kobayakawa store and human-looking shadows, however, Ryunosuke notes that they don't seem hostile. The ball leads them a group of shadows, who then disappear and Shinpei sees Ushio in the middle. Ushio doesn't feel well and Haine comes out of her. Ryunosuke recalls Hizuru saying that since Ushio came out of Haine, a future may come where Ushio's personality is eliminated and Haine takes over, she will kill her, if not Ryunosuke should kill her. Ryunosuke prepares to shoot, but Shinpei stops him and Ushio states she is okay now. She explains that this isn't the Haine that killed Ryunosuke, and that back then Haine's personality split into the human girl, Haine, and Hiruko. Inside of Ushio is the little girl that became friends with Hizuru. Haine wants to talk with them and as they agree, Haine comes out. She explains she had a long dream, which was Ushio's memories. She apologizes for everyone that got involved with her and for those that died. Ryunosuke tells her there is no need to apologize as Hiruko ate him and the one to really blame is Shide for orchestrating it all. Haine explains that this is Tokoyo, the realm of the dead and where times doesn't flow. Haine points them out and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead in time and realize this was probably Shide's plan. Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and with it, he can transcend to an even higher dimension, where time and space will be at his command. Ushio then explains she read Shide's mind and he wants to destroy the world and just "turn it off" like a game. Suddenly a WWII air raid starts and Ushio protects them from the bombing. Shinpei tells them that if Shide plans on taking the eye and returning to the real world, that means there is a way for them to return as well. Haine states they need to kill Hiruko, and then Tokoyo will vanish too. Haine explains that the raid is from Hiruko's memories and Tokoyo is connected to her memories, although its a day Hiruko likely wishes to forget. Ushio then realizes that Shide is forcing Hiruko to relive that day. Haine explains she also have memories of that day and will try to suppress the memory for few moments, however, they should be careful of Shide's armor, whose armor can reflect any force directed at it. They need to erase Shide's armor first and Ushio is confident she can do it as she got a present from Mio. Haine then suppresses the memory and stops time. Ushio then jumps from a bomb to a bomb, heading up to the planes where Shide is. She jumps on his plane and slices him up, but realizes that there is no one inside of him. Shide then wonders if she figured his secret and as he reflects her hack, he attacks her leaving only her legs and eye behind. As he reaches for the eye, Ushio eats a fragment of a child Ushio and recovers in a child form, retaking her eye. She then jumps and touches Hiruko, hacking her and erasing the air raid memory. As they fall, Ushio contacts Shinpei and tells him that Shide's real body is in the real world and is controlling his armor remotely through Hiruko. Shinpei wonders what is going on with the armor right now and Ushio notices that the part she erased, haven't recovered. Shinpei then states she can erase the entire armor. ==Characters== *[[Shide]] *[[Haine]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] ==Trivia== *The episode title might be a reference to the japanese folk story from Richard Gordon Smiths ''Ancient Tales and Folk-lore of Japan''. Which was named Tokoyo, and was a about the daughter of an exiled samurai who defeated and slew a sea monster. **Also the plane of existence where the Shadows reside in likely based off of the shinto mythological underworld, Yomi. Just as the higher dimension that Shide is trying to reach is probably based off of Takamagahara, The High Plain of Heaven from the same mythos.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

Hizuru Minakata is the woman who met Shinpei on the ferry and told him the name "Ryunosuke Nagumo". Hitogashima was her hometown too, and she had returned home for the first time in 14 years in order to unravel a mysterious message left on her cell phone. Hizuru learns of the existence of "Shadows" and "Heine," and joins up with Ginjiro, a hunter, to discover that many of the islanders have been replaced by Shadows. ==Summary== Arriving on Hitogashima, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] is about to step on a man's shadow, but the shadow moves avoiding being stepped on, making Hizuru realize that the man is a Shadow and the message she got is now much more believable. She then sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] heading towards [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] calling him "Shin" and wonders if he is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru sees a notification about [[Ushio Kofune]]'s funeral and recognizing the Kofune name, she decides to attend it. There, even after fourteen years, [[Masahito Karikiri]] recognizes Hizuru, who steps on his shadow and confirms that he isn't one of them. Hizuru wonders if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and Masahito confirms, saying there was an accident yesterday. He wonders why she came back, but then interrupts Hizuru trying to guess that she studied for a teacher or doctor, but that only annoys Hizuru who states she remembered why she can't stand him. Masahito calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. Alain remembers Hizuru and is surprised to see her. Hizuru recalls that during her second year of middle school, she was a frequent visitor at Kofune restaurant. Alain had two daughters and his wife passed away after giving birth to Mio. She would meet Ushio there and would sometimes tell Ushio her original stories. Alain receives a call from Mio, who tells him that she and Shinpei fell into the ocean and will be a bit later. Overhearing that, Hizuru asks about Shinpei, and Alain explains it's his best friend's son, Shinpei Ajiro, who he took in. Masahito explains that about ten years ago, both of his parents died in a boating accident. Hearing that, Hizuru realizes that the boy sitting in front of her on the boat was Shinpei and she decides to avoid him for now. Alain follows her and tells Hizuru about Ushio's marks on the neck. Hizuru asks if they checked under her nails for blood or skin, but Alain says they didn't check. Alain wonders if this case reminds Hizuru of Ryuunosuke's death fourteen years ago. Hizuru then returns to Ushio's coffin and opens it, to check her neck. She asks who dressed the body and Alain tells her it was a nurse from the Hishigata Clinic. Hizuru starts leaving, but asks Alain if before Ushio's death, she mentioned she saw her doppelganger. Asako Isokane recognizes Hizuru, an old friend of her, who was visiting the Kofune restaurant with her. Asako explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa|Shiori]] during the accident. However, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot. Seeing the rest of the Kobayakawa's, Hizuru gets angry for the shadows acting like they care for Ushio. Hizuru reveals to [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. As they are growing in numbers, Ginjiro states that one of them has the ability to produce more Shadows. Hizuru guesses that a Shadow was drowning Shiori and killed and erased her, but then played and acted like she was the one drowning, and then killed and replaced the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives Ginjiro her second phone and tells him to contact her if it rings. Shinpei reaches the funeral and decides to repeat all the conversations he had. He tells Shiori that she probably saw a Shadow and to keep away from duplicate if she sees her again. A bit later, Asako mentions that Shinpei told Shiori about "Shadows" and he confirms it's something he heard from Mio when they were young. In that moment, Shinpei notices an ant walking over Asako's and her husband's shadows and they avoid being stepped on by the ant, and realizes they are already Shadows. As they leave, Mio approaches him and Shinpei asks her if yesterday she was with white panties. Mio is shocked that it's the first thing he asks her after two years. Shinpei recalls that he managed to see Mio's panties when she killed him, but today she is wearing blue and white stripped panties. Mio confirms it and he realizes she was copied yesterday. Elsewhere, Shadow Mio produces a shadow with Alain memories, and learns that he too doesn't know where Ushio is. At 1:30PM, Ushio's casket enters the furnace and after collecting her remains, everyone has a lunch in a special room. Shinpei plans to ask two questions those he suspects. The first is if they had heard about shadow sickness and second if they had seen a well-endowed lady. As he asks around, Alain tells him that's Hizuru and gives him a note she gave him, when he asked her about her contact info. Shinpei recognizes the text as being a code from her book Adrift. After cracking it, Shinpei calls the phone number and Ginjiro picks up. After Shinpei introduces himself, Ginjiro does the same and states he is an acquaintance to Hizuru. As Shinpei is in the crematorium, Ginjiro tells him to go back alone to the funeral hall. Getting there, Ginjiro tells him to stand still and shoot at Shinpei's shadow. At the same time, Alain had gone to the bathroom. Hizuru follows him and puts "maintenance" note on the stall he enters and goes into the other. A shadow Alain then comes and as he opens her stall, she smashes the shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills the Shadow Alain. Hizuru then receives a call from Ginjiro. After confirming Shinpei isn't a shadow, Ginjiro invites him to the fourth battery. As he meets Ginjiro there, Ginjiro tells him that he has some questions. Ginjiro notes that to solve the code you need to know the author, Ryuunosuke Nagumo, and her real name. However, Hizuru haven't told anyone else except Ginjiro that she is Ryuunosuke. Which would mean, no one could call the phone unless there is a Shadow that copied Hizuru, however Shinpei is human. Hizuru appears and Shinpei gives her his copy of Swampman and asks her for an autograph and to write his name Shinpei Ajiro. As he had said his name in front of her, he wonders what will happen now. Hizuru notes that he isn't normal and signs his book. She then tells him to correct her if the next thing is false. She notes that he didn't knew who she was on the boat and that there is no way to know her identity unless she revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. ==Characters== *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *Asako Isokane/Asako Kobayakawa *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Shiori Kobayakawa]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 070a8a5fbe5156c690756a43f9df05eace66c5c7 0 221 1445 1397 2022-10-16T22:09:05Z 94.121.229.85 0 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Shinpei Two | image = Shinpei Two.png | imagecaption =the most luxurious man | relatives = Akemi Ajiro (mother, deceased)<br/>Toru Ajiro (father, deceased)<br/>[[Alain Kofune]] (adoptive parent) <br/>[[Mio Kofune]] (childhood friend) <br/>[[Ushio Kofune]] (childhood friend/ love interest) | affiliation =High school | occupation =Student Smith | marital =Ushio | birthDate =2009 | birthPlace =Syria | deathDate =2055 | deathPlace =Syria | species = Human | gender = Male | height =165 | weight =35 | eyes =Black | portrayedby = Natsuki Hanae | appearsin =killers | debut =Show |age=13}}'''Shinpei Ajiro''' (網代 慎平, ''Ajiro Shinpei'') is a 17-year-old boy who returned to his hometown of Hitogashima for the first time in two years to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, [[Ushio Kofune]]. Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She is intelligent and has the top grades in her grade, but she is physically weak and not good at sports. She and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] have known each other since childhood and are classmates at the same high school. ==Appearance== Tokiko is a young girl with a long red hair braided in a tail. ==Personality== Lesbian ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Tokiko joins [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] to visit the Summer Festival with them. Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Tokiko remains in the car with Ginjiro and Mio. She had let Shadow Mio copy her and join the group. Tokiko also wanted Shadow Mio to learn everything about her and her feelings. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. When Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, she no longer can fight and Tokiko comes with the two shadows and helps her fight Shide. However, things don't go well and Tokiko barely escape thanks to Ginjiro and Tetsu. She manages to follow Shadow Mio's trace and finds Shinpei with her. As Tokiko is fatally injured, before she dies, she tells Shinpei to save Ryunosuke and Hizuru on Torajima. Shadow Mio then scan her memories and show them to Shinpei, who decides to restart the loop. ===9th Loop=== Knowing how Hizuru would fight, Shide easily defeats her. Tokiko attacks with the a stray shadow, but Shide easily kills the shadow. Shinpei then comes and Haine decides to leave. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio, while the group is in Tokiko's stray shadow inside the Hiruko Cave. They proceed towards Hiruko's main body, but on their way, they face a shadow who shoot out teeth and attempts to pin the stray with them. Tokiko breaks part of the cave to create a wall from the debris and decides to stay and fight the shadow with her stray, while the group proceeds towards Hiruko. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

She is intelligent and has the top grades in her grade, but she is physically weak and not good at sports. She and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] have known each other since childhood and are classmates at the same high school. ==Appearance== Tokiko is a young girl with a long red hair braided in a tail. ==Personality== Tokiko seems to be in love with Mio. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Tokiko joins [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] to visit the Summer Festival with them. Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth".

Shinpei attends the funeral and is told by his best friend, Seido Hishigata, that there is a possibility that Ushio was murdered by someone else. Furthermore, even Ushio's sister, Mio, complains that Ushio was murdered. There is a tradition on Hitogashima that anyone who sees a "shadow" that looks like him or her will die. Before her death, Mio saw Ushio's "shadow"... ==Summary== While returning to Hitogashima, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] dreams of a moment with [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]], who wonders how many years has it been since he last came to the island. Before going, Ushio tells him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Attempting to stop Ushio, Shinpei tries to reach her, but ends up bumping into something. As he wakes up, he realizes he bumped into a woman and apologizes, but gets slapped by her. Reaching the island, Shinpei recalls its a small island with 700 population in Wakayama City. The island is supported by tourism and fishing and its been two years since he was last there. Shinpei returns on July 22nd to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Shinpei is greeted by a speeding Mio on a bike, Ushio's little sister. She is unable to stop and ends up falling in the water, but acts like she wanted to take a swim. After helping her get out of the water, Mio wonders how is Tokyo's life and if he went to Shibuya, but Shinpei reveals he doesn't get out much. While heading towards the funeral, they chat about various things. Mio reveals that the island now has many people she doesn't know, but lately, even people she knows sometimes seem like strangers. Shinpei guesses its due to the many tourists around this time of the year. Mio laughs, stating that Shinpei now talks normal and has blended in Tokyo's life. At the funeral, Shinpei recalls that he lost his parents 10 years ago and was taken by Kofune family, making Ushio not only a childhood friend, but family too. Befor leaving the island Ushio wanted Shinpei to make her curry, but he blew her off saying he will make it next time, but that time never came. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] hugs Shinpei and cries, explaining that Ushio tried saving a kid, but ended up drowning. Sou apologizes for not being able to do anything and tells Shinpei to hit him until he feels better. However, Shinpei states its fine and since everyone is crying, he is able to remain calm. Shinpei heard that Sou's father performed an autopsy and wonders why. Sou points out at Shiori Kobayakawa, stating its her that Ushio saved, but the girl haven't spoken since then. Shinpei gets called to help with the procession and Sou tells him he will give him the details later. That night, Shinpei prepares curry for Mio, Alain and Ushio. As they eat, a [[Tetsu Totsumura|police officer]] notices Mio standing outside of the house and looking at it. After dinner, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that his father didn't perform an autopsy, but was there just for the police's inquest. However, they found marks on Ushio's neck, similar to strangling, making it possible that Ushio was killed. Sou explains they were playing on the beach behind the elementary school since the tourists don't go there. Ushio noticed Shiori drowning and went first. Mio and Sou then followed, but didn't see anyone suspicious. Sou explains only a few people know about the marks: the police, Mio, his father, Alain and Sou himself. But due to the situation, the police labelled it as incident as it couldn't have been a murder. Mio then knocks on Shinpei's door and gives him Ushio's necklace. She hugs him and cries, stating she will never see Ushio again and won't ever forgive the one who killed her. Shinpei asks her if she knows something, but Mio blows her nose on Shinpei's shirt, saying that he can have the bath now and that Ushio would be mad if she is always depressed, so she will no longer cry. As she leaves, Shinpei looks at the necklace, recalling how he gave it to Ushio, who stated she will treasure it. The next day, Alain reopens his dinner. Shinpei helps out, thinking the best way to distract yourself from a loss is to keep your body moving. A drunk customer, Nakamura, asks Shinpei if he found who he was looking for. As Shinpei wonders what he means, Nakamura explains its a woman with glasses and large bust, which causes Shinpei to question Nakamura if he really meant him. [[Tetsu Totsumura]] enters the dinner and asks for the usual. Shinpei recalls he is related to Kofune's family and is the only police officer on the island. Mio takes his order, but wonders why he didn't came this morning for breakfast. Tetsu explains that all Kobayakawa family had vanished. In the morning, their Koba Mart wasn't open, so their neighbour, Shiomi's wife, peeked in their house and it was all empty. Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. Hearing that, Mio runs outside and Shinpei goes after her. Shinpei finally catches up to Mio. She tells him that Shiori was a bit weird lately and Shinpei guesses its because she stopped talking due to shock. However, Mio explains that around a week before that Shiori said she saw a girl who looked just like Shiori herself. Then Shiori felt being watched each day. A man interrupts them, asking if that ain't the shadow. Mio tells Shinpei the man is [[Ginjiro Nezu]], a hunter. Ginjiro states its the shadow sickness, a disease endemic to this island and it used to be quite common before the war. If you are taken by the shadow sickness, you start seeing your "shadow" and all those who saw it, died, killed by it. The shadow then pretends to be the one it killed and kills the remaining family. Before leaving, Ginjiro says that his grandpa told him that the afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. Mio reveals that her grandma told her the same story when she was little. Three days before Ushio died, Mio saw Ushio's shadow. While picking up trash with Ushio and others, Ushio saw her shadow and pointed it for Mio to see. Shinpei thinks its a joke, but Mio states its truth and the shadow disappeared before their eyes. As Mio haven't told this to anyone else, Shinpei suggest they go see Hiruko like the man suggested. Shinpei recalls that Shiruko is the nickname for the Hito shrine in the northern part of the island. At the shrine, Shinpei tries to open the door, but its locked. Mio then looks at the forest and a figure moves and runs. Mio states she saw Shiori and makes Shinpei run with her after Shiori. They are unable to find her and Shinpei starts to wonder if it was Shiori, why would she run from them. They hear a gunshot and run towards the sound. Shinpei ends up finding the woman with glasses he bumped into on the boat, bleeding from a gun wound. Mio panics and pushes Shinpei towards the woman, while she goes for help. The woman, saying she failed, tells Shinpei to listen, but before she can finish, she gets shot in the head. Shinpei then turns to see Mio holding a gun and having another Mio as hostage, while saying that her father always said that until you wash the dishes and clean everything, the service ain't over. She then pulls the trigger and kills Mio and then shoots Shinpei in the head too. Shinpei then wakes up on the boat, bumping in the woman with the glasses again. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *Shiori Kobayakawa *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 9cb9d3a051e9788d7a189a84856e9f54fd37e2f3 1456 1455 2022-11-12T13:53:07Z 82.43.236.6 0 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Episode | title = So Long, Summer Days | partOfSeason = | episodeNumber = Episode 1 | image = Episode 01 Title.png | writer = Hiroshi Seko | director = Shinji Matsuda | previousEpisode = | nextEpisode = [[Episode 2]] |storyboard=Ayumu Watanabe|airDate=April 15, 2022 (Japanese) <br> January 7, 2023 (German) |adaptation=[[Chapter 1]]}}'''So Long, Summer Days''' (さよなら夏の日, ''Sayonara Natsu no Hi'') is the 1st episode of the [[Summer Time Rendering (anime)|Summer Time Rendering]] anime. ==Synopsis== Shinpei Ajiro returns to his hometown of Hitogashima in Wakayama City for the first time in two years upon hearing the news of the death of his childhood friend, Ushio Kofune.

She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== Mio can be described as a shy yet cheerful girl, who is also very protective and kind willing to do whatever it takes to keep her loved ones safe. She is also shown to be quite bubbly at times, and also harbors feelings for Ajiro Shinpei. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since Seido Hishigata may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Later, when the group finds Seido and teams up with him, outside the house, Shadow Mio talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio. Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. The next day, when Shinpei was leaving with Ushio to find and kill shadows, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk about when he returns. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Mio is happy to have let it out of her chest, but as she returns to her room, she cries over Tokiko's shoulder. Shadow Mio states that if they defeat Haine, Ushio will be gone and if Mio asked if she would have a chance then. However, Mio couldn't ask that and knows that Shinpei isn't a playboy. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Mio and the rest meet up with Shinpei as he arrives at Hitogashima. On 24th, they go to the festival, where Sou confesses his feelings to Mio and she asks him what he likes about her. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. The next day, when Shinpei was leaving with Ushio to find and kill shadows, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk about when he returns. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Mio is happy to have let it out of her chest, but as she returns to her room, she cries over Tokiko's shoulder. Shadow Mio states that if they defeat Haine, Ushio will be gone and if Mio asked if she would have a chance then. However, Mio couldn't ask that and knows that Shinpei isn't a playboy. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Mio and the rest meet up with Shinpei as he arrives at Hitogashima. On 24th, they go to the festival, where Sou confesses his feelings to Mio and she asks him what he likes about her. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== Mio can be described as a shy yet cheerful girl, who is also very protective and kind willing to do whatever it takes to keep her loved ones safe. She is also shown to be quite bubbly at times, and also harbors feelings for Shinpei Ajiro. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since Seido Hishigata may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Later, when the group finds Seido and teams up with him, outside the house, Shadow Mio talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio.

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switchinf to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the figure. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switchinf to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots as Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima.

However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage.

She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time.

On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present.

Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan.

About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times.

He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival.

At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ==11th Loop== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece swimsuit with white shoulder straps. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starta and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

He also wears glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At Hishigata Clinic, Seido is with a shadow in a wheelchair. He sees the red light in the sky and comments that [[Heine]] had recovered by consuming thousands of humans. ===4th Loop=== Seido calls Negoro and tells her to use the policeman's, Tadashi Miura's, body as today's food at 9 o'clock. ===7th Loop=== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]]'s group arrives at the hospital to see all items and furniture erased and traces of a fight that leads them to the basement morgue. There they continue through a hallway that leads to Hiruko Cave, and on the way they find Seido being choked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio stops Chitose and severs their connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko and then Sou, give him first aid and manage to save him. Seeing that they had gotten to this point, Seido realizes that's why Heine wanted to kill him: she was afraid he would tell them everything. He orders Tokiko to kill them, so he could regain Heine's trust, but Tokiko refuses, acknowledging that the shadows betrayed them. Enraged, Seido manages to take the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He turns to Ushio, but Tokiko then stops him, revealing she was actually Shadow Mio. Seido refuses to talk, Shadow Mio attempts to scan him but learns that he is immune. Negoro then shows up with Ushio's body and gives Seido a message from Shide, thanking the Hishigata family for all their help, but this is the end. Realizing he is immune and can't achieve his goal, Seido decides to talk. He reveals that Heine wants to return to her world, which only shadows can reach and he was supposed to join her with his wife Chitose, Tokiko and Sou. Chitose calls him an idiot, but thanks him for saving her, and tells him he can still do the right thing. Seido calls Tokiko to dig up a safe he had given her, containing a list of patients who had died and had been fed to Heine. Including Shinpei's parents. Seido also shows a photo, revealing that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to: Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido reveals Chitose's ashes to Sou, confessing that he couldn't give her body to Heine for food. He reveals that she died from heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that was days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believed it would be too much for Sou to bear and that's why he chose his sister as successor. ===9th=== Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. == Etymology == * The name '''Seido''' means "bronze" (青銅). * Seido's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Seido also shows a photo, revealing that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to: Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido reveals Chitose's ashes to Sou, confessing that he couldn't give her body to Heine for food. He reveals that she died from heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that was days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believed it would be too much for Sou to bear and that's why he chose his sister as successor. ===9th=== Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. == Etymology == * The name '''Seido''' means "bronze" (青銅). * Seido's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== Appearing mysterious and serious much like [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]], Nezu is a seasoned hunter with a good aim and one of the only people having some experience combating shadows. Though serious and calm outwardly, he hides emotional trauma of his wife turning into a shadow which he overcomes by finally slaying his wife's shadow, an act witnessed by [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]. He is also shown to be thoroughly acquainted with [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]], who considers him one of the only people on the island trustworthy enough. This camaraderie is later revealed to stem from Nezu being the one to help Hizuru when she was threatened by a berserk [[Haine]] who had killed [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and one of the people whose shadow had been slain and now couldn't be copied again. ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Ginjiro then realizes why they went right away for his rifle and also knew his location. Believing they don't have a chance, he wants them to run, but Shinpei refuses to leave Hizuru. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Ginjiro lives his normal life, helping out cleaning the beach and later visits the festival with his wife. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

Mio takes his order and wonder why he didn't came in the morning and Tetsu explains that the whole Kobayakawa family is gone, making him believe that they had a debt and ran in the middle of the night. ===2nd Loop=== On the second time Shinpei arrived on Hitogashima, he goes outside to take some fresh air. There he sees when Tetsu found Mio staring at her house. Tetsu wonders what is she doing, but Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife. She then produces a shadow, which copies Tetsu's appearance and takes on his identity. Mio wants Tetsu's gun, making the Shadow realize, she has not yet killed the real Mio. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, in the evening, Shinpei calls Tetsu and reports a fake fight. As Tetsu goes to check out the fight, he avoids meeting Shadow Mio. The next day, Tetsu gets called to investigate the missing Kobayakawa family.

The two then see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. Tetsu finds badly injured Ryunosuke who switches to Hizuru, who asks where is Mio. Tetsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. As he takes her, she shoots at the shadow parent and frees, Shinpei, but then gets killed by it. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu. ===6th Loop=== Tetsu along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops.

Tetsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. As he takes her, she shoots at the shadow parent and frees, Shinpei, but then gets killed by it. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu. ===6th Loop=== Tetsu along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tetsu find it crazy and suicide, but as the rest agree, he agrees too. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Looking at Tetsu, she wonder why is he even there, but hands him a gun and tells him to do his best to survive. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. == Etymology == * The name '''Tetsu''' means "philosophy" (哲). * Tetsu's surname '''Totsumura''' means "convex, beetle brow, uneven" (凸) ('''totsu''') and "town, village" (村) ('''mura''').

He is the eldest son of Hishigata Clinic, the only hospital on Hitogashima, and is studying to become a doctor. He has a strong sense of justice and regrets that he was present at the scene of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s maritime accident but was unable to prevent it. He has confessed his feelings to [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] twice in the past and was rejected. ==Appearance== Sou is a young man with messy brown hair and brown eyes. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== At [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Sou hugs Shinpei and apologizes for not being able to help her. He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ===3rd Loop=== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ===4th Loop=== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. ===6th Loop=== Sou along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Sou agrees. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko gives him first aid and then Sou takes over, not wanting him to die before answering for what he did. Seido awakens, but wants Tokiko to kill them, so that Heine can gain his trust again. As Tokiko refuses, because the shadows had betrayed them, Seido takes the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko turns into Shadow Mio and stops him. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything. Heine wanted to return to her world, and Seido, Chitose, Sou and Tokiko would going her as shadows> Seido also reveals that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido shows Sou, Chitose's ashes, as he couldn't give her body to Heine to eat. He reveals that she died from a heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that is days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believe it will be too much for Sou to bear all this and he values life, and that's why he chose his sister as successor. Next day, the group is split in two teams and Sou is left with Mio and Shadow Mio to wait at the Kofune restaurant. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Sou and the rest meet up with Shinpei as he arrives at Hitogashima. Last year, Sou confessed to Mio, but she turned him down. This year, on 24th, they go to the festival, where Sou again confesses his feelings to Mio and she asks him what he likes about her. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

She and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] have known each other since childhood and are classmates at the same high school. ==Appearance== Tokiko is a young girl with a long red hair braided in a tail. ==Personality== Tokiko seems to be in love with Mio. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Tokiko joins [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] to visit the Summer Festival with them. Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Tokiko remains in the car with Ginjiro and Mio. She had let Shadow Mio copy her and join the group. Tokiko also wanted Shadow Mio to learn everything about her and her feelings. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. When Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, she no longer can fight and Tokiko comes with the two shadows and helps her fight Shide. However, things don't go well and Tokiko barely escape thanks to Ginjiro and Tetsu. She manages to follow Shadow Mio's trace and finds Shinpei with her. As Tokiko is fatally injured, before she dies, she tells Shinpei to save Ryunosuke and Hizuru on Torajima. Shadow Mio then scan her memories and show them to Shinpei, who decides to restart the loop. ===9th Loop=== Knowing how Hizuru would fight, Shide easily defeats her. Tokiko attacks with the a stray shadow, but Shide easily kills the shadow. Shinpei then comes and Haine decides to leave. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio, while the group is in Tokiko's stray shadow inside the Hiruko Cave. They proceed towards Hiruko's main body, but on their way, they face a shadow who shoot out teeth and attempts to pin the stray with them. Tokiko breaks part of the cave to create a wall from the debris and decides to stay and fight the shadow with her stray, while the group proceeds towards Hiruko. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Tokiko remains in the car with Ginjiro and Mio. She had let Shadow Mio copy her and join the group. Tokiko also wanted Shadow Mio to learn everything about her and her feelings. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. When Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, she no longer can fight and Tokiko comes with the two shadows and helps her fight Shide. However, things don't go well and Tokiko barely escape thanks to Ginjiro and Tetsu. She manages to follow Shadow Mio's trace and finds Shinpei with her. As Tokiko is fatally injured, before she dies, she tells Shinpei to save Ryunosuke and Hizuru on Torajima. Shadow Mio then scan her memories and show them to Shinpei, who decides to restart the loop. ===9th Loop=== Knowing how Hizuru would fight, Shide easily defeats her. Tokiko attacks with the a stray shadow, but Shide easily kills the shadow. Shinpei then comes and Haine decides to leave. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio, while the group is in Tokiko's stray shadow inside the Hiruko Cave. They proceed towards Hiruko's main body, but on their way, they face a shadow who shoot out teeth and attempts to pin the stray with them. Tokiko breaks part of the cave to create a wall from the debris and decides to stay and fight the shadow with her stray, while the group proceeds towards Hiruko. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

She is intelligent and has the top grades in her grade, but she is physically weak and not good at sports. She and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] have known each other since childhood and are classmates at the same high school. ==Appearance== Tokiko is a young girl with a long red hair braided in a tail. ==Personality== Tokiko seems to be in love with Mio. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Tokiko joins [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] to visit the Summer Festival with them. Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn.

He is soft-spoken and easy to talk to, but his long stories are his weak point. ==Appearance== Masahito is an young adult man with medium long light brown hair. He wears glasses and is usually in his priest uniform. ==Personality== ==Plot== Masahito performs the funeral of [[Ushio Kofune]] and calls [[Shinpei Ajiro]] to help with the procession. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, at the funeral, Masahito recognizes [[Hizuru Minakata]], even though its been fourteen years. She asks him if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and he confirms. He wonders why she came back, but as she was replying, he interrupts her, guessing she studied for being a teacher or doctor. Hizuru gets annoyed and tells him she remembered why she couldn't stand him. Masahito then calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. At the funeral crematorium, Shinpei asks him if he knows about the shadow sickness and Masahito confirms as it was his grandfather who named it. As he describes the woman on the boat, Masahito guesses he is talking about Hizuru. === 7th Loop === Shinpei goes to speak with Masahito at the shrine. They talk about video games and then Shinpei tells him about the Swamp Man novel, where the protagonist gets replaced by a perfect copy and no one notices. He then retells the Hiruko legend and how the shadow sickness started with the whale that washed ashore, turning to a girl and ate it. Masahito laughs at Shinpei for thinking the shadows are real, but Shinpei throws pictures at him, telling him that he very well knows its true as Masahito was there. Masahito sees a 70 years old picture with him on it, and a 40 years old picture with him, Haine and their child. Shinpei wonders if he should call him Shidehiko Hishigata and that he is a human-shadow hybrid. Masahito then explains that during the famine in 1732, they turned hundred of the islanders into shadows and that way they needed less food to survive, which he believes saved the island. Ushio gets angry and asks him about Shinpei's parents. Masahito then explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public, so he had to kill them, but wonders if they would have been happier if he made them shadows. Masahito notes that Shinpei probably wonders why his arm isn't injured. Ushio unable to take it anymore, shows up and kills Masahito. Moments later, another Masahito who turns into [[Shide]] comes out and kills both Ushio and Shinpei. === 8th Loop === Haine contacts Hizuru and Mio, while having copied Shinpei, and arranges a meeting with them at different locations. She sends one Masahito at Alain's garden, while another takes with her. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. As they fight, Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, Ryunosuke is then able to take control on part of it and creates his own shadow. With half of his armor got, Masahito can no longer maintain his Shide form. Meanwhile, Shinpei and shadow Mio face the other Masahito, who informs them that they are too late and Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. He suggest Mio to kill Shinpei, so that he restarts the loop, but Mio instead cuts Masahito's head, who then states they will meet in the next loop. Shinpei then receives information about the fight with Hizuru and decides to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Figuring that Shide has no idea from where Shinpei came, Shinpei loops back. === 10th Loop === Haine realizes that Shinpei looped back and is located in the Hiruko cave and they head towards him with Masahito. They reach them at the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays behind to stop them while the barrier closes. Shide and Haine later still manage to catch up to Shinpei. While Shide fights Ushio, Haine tells him how to dodge, but Shinpei tricks Haine and injures her. Without Haine, Ushio kills Shide immediately. A second Shide appears, but as Ushio punches Hiruko's main body, his mud armor falls off and he is killed by Mio. == Etymology == * The name '''Masahito''' means "real, genuine" (真) ('''ma'''), "sand, grit" (砂) ('''sa''') and "person" (人) ('''hito'''). * Masahito's surname '''Karikiri''' means "goose/wild goose" (雁) ('''kari''') and "cut/cutoff/off, be sharp, ardent, eager, acute, keen" (切) ('''kiri''').

Hamaji makes fun of Shiori for using swim float and finds her lame that she can't swim. Shiori goes to Mio and asks her how to become a good swimmer like her and Mio decides to teach her. Ushio joins them, stating that she will be protecting Shiori, but she wonders what she means. While the group is being distracted by Akari, Shiori is dragged into the water by her Shadow, who starts to take her to the bottom. Ushio and her Shadow come to her help. Shadow Ushio manages to retake Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori still manages to immobilize them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori from them, but is then strangled by her. Shadow Ushio tries to reach the surface with Shiori, but Shadow Shiori catches up to them. She then attacks Shadow Ushio, realizing she is faulty and tries to fix her. However, as Mio and Sou are getting close, Shadow Shiori leaves Shadow Ushio sink to the bottom and erases Shiori, proceeding to act unconscious so that Mio and Sou save her. ==Plot== Shiori end up seeing her own shadow and told [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] that she saw a girl that looks like her. Later Shiori ended up drowning and Ushio came saving her, but ended up dying herself. === 1st Loop === At Ushio's funeral, Shiori was present, but she had stopped talking after the incident. The next day, Kobayakawa family disappeared and later that day, Mio saw Shiori in the woods near the Hiruko Shrine. === 3rd Loop === While reliving the day for a third time, during the funeral, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks Shiori if she saw a girl that looked like her. The next day, Shinpei goes to Koba Mart, but as its closed, a neighbour, Shiomi, decides to check on them and enter their place. Shinpei sees a table full of untouched food and the TV running. He then sees two adult-size black strains and strange dents on the floor, figuring they were killed by a shadow. He goes on the second floor looking for Shiori, but Shiori then appears after him causing a flash and wondering why he asked her if she saw a young girl looking like her and if there is something wrong with her. Shinpei realizes that she is a shadow. Shiori then produces a shadow, preparing to kill Shinpei, but Shiomi then comes and the shadow Shiori decides to leave. == Etymology == [[Category:Characters]] [[Category:Females]] d97a7f3a50b5cb7451f7e5e9dc6005d6f27eec1a 0 251 1495 1456 2023-01-06T12:13:13Z 49.36.182.130 0 Ajiro's friend name was wrong.

Shinpei attends the funeral and is told by his best friend, Sou Hishigata, that there is a possibility that Ushio was murdered by someone else. Furthermore, even Ushio's sister, Mio, complains that Ushio was murdered. There is a tradition on Hitogashima that anyone who sees a "shadow" that looks like him or her will die. Before her death, Mio saw Ushio's "shadow"... ==Summary== While returning to Hitogashima, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] dreams of a moment with [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]], who wonders how many years has it been since he last came to the island. Before going, Ushio tells him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Attempting to stop Ushio, Shinpei tries to reach her, but ends up bumping into something. As he wakes up, he realizes he bumped into a woman and apologizes, but gets slapped by her. Reaching the island, Shinpei recalls its a small island with 700 population in Wakayama City. The island is supported by tourism and fishing and its been two years since he was last there. Shinpei returns on July 22nd to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Shinpei is greeted by a speeding Mio on a bike, Ushio's little sister. She is unable to stop and ends up falling in the water, but acts like she wanted to take a swim. After helping her get out of the water, Mio wonders how is Tokyo's life and if he went to Shibuya, but Shinpei reveals he doesn't get out much. While heading towards the funeral, they chat about various things. Mio reveals that the island now has many people she doesn't know, but lately, even people she knows sometimes seem like strangers. Shinpei guesses its due to the many tourists around this time of the year. Mio laughs, stating that Shinpei now talks normal and has blended in Tokyo's life. At the funeral, Shinpei recalls that he lost his parents 10 years ago and was taken by Kofune family, making Ushio not only a childhood friend, but family too. Befor leaving the island Ushio wanted Shinpei to make her curry, but he blew her off saying he will make it next time, but that time never came. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] hugs Shinpei and cries, explaining that Ushio tried saving a kid, but ended up drowning. Sou apologizes for not being able to do anything and tells Shinpei to hit him until he feels better. However, Shinpei states its fine and since everyone is crying, he is able to remain calm. Shinpei heard that Sou's father performed an autopsy and wonders why. Sou points out at Shiori Kobayakawa, stating its her that Ushio saved, but the girl haven't spoken since then. Shinpei gets called to help with the procession and Sou tells him he will give him the details later. That night, Shinpei prepares curry for Mio, Alain and Ushio. As they eat, a [[Tetsu Totsumura|police officer]] notices Mio standing outside of the house and looking at it. After dinner, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that his father didn't perform an autopsy, but was there just for the police's inquest. However, they found marks on Ushio's neck, similar to strangling, making it possible that Ushio was killed. Sou explains they were playing on the beach behind the elementary school since the tourists don't go there. Ushio noticed Shiori drowning and went first. Mio and Sou then followed, but didn't see anyone suspicious. Sou explains only a few people know about the marks: the police, Mio, his father, Alain and Sou himself. But due to the situation, the police labelled it as incident as it couldn't have been a murder. Mio then knocks on Shinpei's door and gives him Ushio's necklace. She hugs him and cries, stating she will never see Ushio again and won't ever forgive the one who killed her. Shinpei asks her if she knows something, but Mio blows her nose on Shinpei's shirt, saying that he can have the bath now and that Ushio would be mad if she is always depressed, so she will no longer cry. As she leaves, Shinpei looks at the necklace, recalling how he gave it to Ushio, who stated she will treasure it. The next day, Alain reopens his dinner. Shinpei helps out, thinking the best way to distract yourself from a loss is to keep your body moving. A drunk customer, Nakamura, asks Shinpei if he found who he was looking for. As Shinpei wonders what he means, Nakamura explains its a woman with glasses and large bust, which causes Shinpei to question Nakamura if he really meant him. [[Tetsu Totsumura]] enters the dinner and asks for the usual. Shinpei recalls he is related to Kofune's family and is the only police officer on the island. Mio takes his order, but wonders why he didn't came this morning for breakfast. Tetsu explains that all Kobayakawa family had vanished. In the morning, their Koba Mart wasn't open, so their neighbour, Shiomi's wife, peeked in their house and it was all empty. Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. Hearing that, Mio runs outside and Shinpei goes after her. Shinpei finally catches up to Mio. She tells him that Shiori was a bit weird lately and Shinpei guesses its because she stopped talking due to shock. However, Mio explains that around a week before that Shiori said she saw a girl who looked just like Shiori herself. Then Shiori felt being watched each day. A man interrupts them, asking if that ain't the shadow. Mio tells Shinpei the man is [[Ginjiro Nezu]], a hunter. Ginjiro states its the shadow sickness, a disease endemic to this island and it used to be quite common before the war. If you are taken by the shadow sickness, you start seeing your "shadow" and all those who saw it, died, killed by it. The shadow then pretends to be the one it killed and kills the remaining family. Before leaving, Ginjiro says that his grandpa told him that the afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. Mio reveals that her grandma told her the same story when she was little. Three days before Ushio died, Mio saw Ushio's shadow. While picking up trash with Ushio and others, Ushio saw her shadow and pointed it for Mio to see. Shinpei thinks its a joke, but Mio states its truth and the shadow disappeared before their eyes. As Mio haven't told this to anyone else, Shinpei suggest they go see Hiruko like the man suggested. Shinpei recalls that Shiruko is the nickname for the Hito shrine in the northern part of the island. At the shrine, Shinpei tries to open the door, but its locked. Mio then looks at the forest and a figure moves and runs. Mio states she saw Shiori and makes Shinpei run with her after Shiori. They are unable to find her and Shinpei starts to wonder if it was Shiori, why would she run from them. They hear a gunshot and run towards the sound. Shinpei ends up finding the woman with glasses he bumped into on the boat, bleeding from a gun wound. Mio panics and pushes Shinpei towards the woman, while she goes for help. The woman, saying she failed, tells Shinpei to listen, but before she can finish, she gets shot in the head. Shinpei then turns to see Mio holding a gun and having another Mio as hostage, while saying that her father always said that until you wash the dishes and clean everything, the service ain't over. She then pulls the trigger and kills Mio and then shoots Shinpei in the head too. Shinpei then wakes up on the boat, bumping in the woman with the glasses again. ==Characters== *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Seido Hishigata]] *[[Tokiko Hishigata]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] *Shiori Kobayakawa *[[Masahito Karikiri]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] [[Category:Episodes]] 3f4c3a4fa66efc5a0b80e20a62008df5960f64c3 0 316 1498 1446 2023-01-23T01:29:16Z 69.144.61.163 0 Personality description (summary) wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Haine | image = <center><tabber> |-|Before 11th loop= [[File:Heine.png]] |-|After 11th loop= [[File:Haineloop.png|thumb]] </tabber></center> | imagecaption = | aliases = Ebisu<br>Hiruko | relatives =[[Ryunosuke Minakata]] (father, <small>11th loop</small>)<br/>[[Hizuru Minakata]] (aunt, <small>11th loop</small>) <br/>[[Asako Kobayakawa]] (mother, <small>11th loop</small>)<br/>[[Shiori Kobayakawa]] (sister, <small>11th loop</small>) | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = | gender = Female<br>genderless/hermaphroditic (original form) | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = Misaki Kuno | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Haine''' (ハイネ, ''Haine'') is the God of Hitogashima, Hiruko no Mikoto and "Mother" to the Shadows. She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== Unlike many other people in the show, Haine is a character who lacks empathy or remorse. She is relentless while feeding off of souls to awaken and strengthen her power. Despite her ancient existence, Haine is oftentimes spoiled and immature, automatically assuming she is entitled to overpower and consume any living person regardless of their morals or abilities. Haine’s childlike behavior can only be assumed to be a reflection of her appearance. She relies heavily on Four Arms to protect her the same time he is defeating Haine’s foes, and expects her firstborn to be the victor due to his overpowered capabilities in combat. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name, Hiruko (ヒルコ, 蛭子) translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

He serves [[Heine|Haine]] and wants to help her revive her. According to Haine, he is greed incarnate. He is also known as the four armed shadow or initially though to be a shadow parent by [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. His real name is '''Shidehiko Hishigata''', who married Haine and took her surname Karikiri. As their child was actually a clone of him, he made Haine transfers his personality and memories into him and kept getting reborn over and over. Currently he assumes the identity of [[Masahito Karikiri]], a supposed descendant of Shidehiko. ==Appearance== Shide has the form of a large tall man with four arms and four eyes. A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them. Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot. Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must be the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he has it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] enter a cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Haine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Haine, the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Haine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree on them dragging Mio into this, but the shadow parent states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow parent is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow parent states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he hasn't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he loses sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow parent then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up, along with Hizuru, who shoots the shadow parent in the head and frees Shinpei. She then attempts to kill Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield and protects him, while also shoots and kills Hizuru. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu as well. He notes that they almost lost Shinpei, but then sees that Shinpei drank a poison to kill himself. Haine attempts to reprogram Ushio, but Ushio starts turning her corrosion back at her. She tells the shadow parent to kill Ushio, but before he is able to, Shinpei dies and takes Ushio with him, looping them back in time. ===5th Loop=== The shadow parent goes to Shiori's house and when Ryunosuke attacks, he fights him. He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Haine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow parent states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who tries to pin him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow, The shadow parent - Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send Shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Shadow Mio goes to take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making Haine wonder what Shadow Mio is doing. Haine then sees Shadow Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with [[Asako Kobayakawa|Asako]] jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. After they go through the portal, he uses Hiruko's memory of the WWII air bombing to recreate it into Hiruko's world, Tokoyo, as her memories are connected to it. He bombs Ushio and her group, but Haine, the little girl's personality is with them and helps them stop the bombing. Ushio then comes and attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. However, due to the injuries, Ushio cannot continue to fight. Shide then faces Shinpei, who is controlled by Ryunosuke and manages to cut his left arm and heavily injure him. Shinpei is still sure of his victory as he still has the eye, which means that eventually Ushio gives it to him. Shide states he just wants to live and had lived for 326 years by swapping bodies. However, as Haine weakened, he feared he lives his last live with Masahito's body. However, few months ago he decided that if he can't live to see the world until its end, he will then end it himself. Shide proceeds to attack Shinpei, but Shinpei manages to reach the shotgun. Unknown to Shide, Ushio had turned herself into shotgun shells and as Shinpei shoots him, he erases Shide's armor. At the same time, Shide in the real world is too old and cannot move or see without the armor and falls to the ground.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-black french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-black french and half-japanese.

He serves [[Heine|Haine]] and wants to help her revive her. According to Haine, he is greed incarnate. He is also known as the four armed shadow or initially though to be a shadow parent by [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. His real name is '''Shidehiko Hishigata''', who married Haine and took her surname Karikiri. As their child was actually a clone of him, he made Haine transfers his personality and memories into him and kept getting reborn over and over. Currently he assumes the identity of [[Masahito Karikiri]], a supposed descendant of Shidehiko. ==Appearance== Shide has the form of a large tall man with four arms and four eyes. A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them. Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. Shide's armor has a special ability, dubbed as "Echo" which enables Shide to copy and return whatever hit it back at the attacker, just like an echo ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot. Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must be the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he has it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] enter a cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Haine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Haine, the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Haine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree on them dragging Mio into this, but the shadow parent states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow parent is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow parent states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he hasn't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he loses sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow parent then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up, along with Hizuru, who shoots the shadow parent in the head and frees Shinpei. She then attempts to kill Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield and protects him, while also shoots and kills Hizuru. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu as well. He notes that they almost lost Shinpei, but then sees that Shinpei drank a poison to kill himself. Haine attempts to reprogram Ushio, but Ushio starts turning her corrosion back at her. She tells the shadow parent to kill Ushio, but before he is able to, Shinpei dies and takes Ushio with him, looping them back in time. ===5th Loop=== The shadow parent goes to Shiori's house and when Ryunosuke attacks, he fights him. He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Haine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow parent states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who tries to pin him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow, The shadow parent - Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send Shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Shadow Mio goes to take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making Haine wonder what Shadow Mio is doing. Haine then sees Shadow Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with [[Asako Kobayakawa|Asako]] jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. After they go through the portal, he uses Hiruko's memory of the WWII air bombing to recreate it into Hiruko's world, Tokoyo, as her memories are connected to it. He bombs Ushio and her group, but Haine, the little girl's personality is with them and helps them stop the bombing. Ushio then comes and attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. However, due to the injuries, Ushio cannot continue to fight. Shide then faces Shinpei, who is controlled by Ryunosuke and manages to cut his left arm and heavily injure him. Shinpei is still sure of his victory as he still has the eye, which means that eventually Ushio gives it to him. Shide states he just wants to live and had lived for 326 years by swapping bodies. However, as Haine weakened, he feared he lives his last live with Masahito's body. However, few months ago he decided that if he can't live to see the world until its end, he will then end it himself. Shide proceeds to attack Shinpei, but Shinpei manages to reach the shotgun. Unknown to Shide, Ushio had turned herself into shotgun shells and as Shinpei shoots him, he erases Shide's armor. At the same time, Shide in the real world is too old and cannot move or see without the armor and falls to the ground.

He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. After they go through the portal, he uses Hiruko's memory of the WWII air bombing to recreate it into Hiruko's world, Tokoyo, as her memories are connected to it. He bombs Ushio and her group, but Haine, the little girl's personality is with them and helps them stop the bombing. Ushio then comes and attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. However, due to the injuries, Ushio cannot continue to fight. Shide then faces Shinpei, who is controlled by Ryunosuke and manages to cut his left arm and heavily injure him. Shinpei is still sure of his victory as he still has the eye, which means that eventually Ushio gives it to him. Shide states he just wants to live and had lived for 326 years by swapping bodies. However, as Haine weakened, he feared he lives his last live with Masahito's body. However, few months ago he decided that if he can't live to see the world until its end, he will then end it himself. Shide proceeds to attack Shinpei, but Shinpei manages to reach the shotgun. Unknown to Shide, Ushio had turned herself into shotgun shells and as Shinpei shoots him, he erases Shide's armor. At the same time, Shide in the real world is too old and cannot move or see without the armor and falls to the ground.

He serves [[Heine|Haine]] and wants to help her revive her. According to Haine, he is greed incarnate. He is also known as the four armed shadow or initially though to be a shadow parent by [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. His real name is '''Shidehiko Hishigata''', who married Haine and took her surname Karikiri. As their child was actually a clone of him, he made Haine transfers his personality and memories into him and kept getting reborn over and over. Currently he assumes the identity of [[Masahito Karikiri]], a supposed descendant of Shidehiko. ==Appearance== Shide has the form of a large tall man with four arms and four eyes. A female-like upper body is able to split from his top half, mostly when he attempts to shoot with his rifle. ==Personality== ==Power & Abilities== Shide is more powerful than other shadows, being faster and stronger than them. Unlike other shadows, his movement can't be stopped by piercing his shadow three times which is likely due to the fact he is not a true shadow but rather a hybrid of human and shadow. Shide's armor has a special ability, dubbed as "Echo" which enables Shide to counter any attack back at the attacker with a copy of the same attack, just like an echo. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At the shrine, after [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and Hizuru arrive, Shadow Parent creates a female shadow from itself, who points a gun at Hizuru, but seeing a glimpse of the future, she manages to dodge the shot. Shadow Parent grabs Shinpei, and looking at its right eye, he realizes it must be the eye their Mother lost long ago. He wonders why he has it, but states he can control time with it. Shadow Parent states that if a "hero" dies, he can continue from a "save point" until it defeats the "Demon King", and the only way for the Demon King to win is to cut the "electrical power". He then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shadow Parent consumes all human bodies and offers them as meal and asks their Mother to grant him the last of her strength. [[Heine|Mother]] then appears floating in the air in a shinning red light. Shadow Parent starts spreading across the island and consume anyone it touches. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] enter a cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. As Shiori appears and knows Ryunosuke's name, Ryunosuke realize this is Haine, who uses Shiori's memories. The shadow parent appears, mentioning its been fourteen years, but he doesn't really have business with Hizuru and wants to know where is the body that stole mother's right eye. Shiori states she read Hizuru and Ryunosuke's mind, but they don't know where the right eye is. The shadow wonders if he can kill them and Shiori confirms. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Shiori states that Ushio and Shinpei are with Tokiko and that she is getting hungry and can't wait for 9 o'clock. When Shinpei was about to shoot at Haine, the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts his fingers and nailgun. He realizes that Haine was about to eat him, but tells her not to do it. He brings Mio and tells her to not eat her as she is an important hostage. Tokiko states they didn't agree on them dragging Mio into this, but the shadow parent states they will all die tomorrow, so it doesn't matter. He shoots at Tokiko, but Sou jumps in and takes the bullet. The shadow parent is surprised, but then shoots again Tokiko and kills her. Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but it returns back to him. The shadow parent states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he hasn't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he loses sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow parent then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] shows up, along with Hizuru, who shoots the shadow parent in the head and frees Shinpei. She then attempts to kill Shinpei, but the shadow creates a shield and protects him, while also shoots and kills Hizuru. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu as well. He notes that they almost lost Shinpei, but then sees that Shinpei drank a poison to kill himself. Haine attempts to reprogram Ushio, but Ushio starts turning her corrosion back at her. She tells the shadow parent to kill Ushio, but before he is able to, Shinpei dies and takes Ushio with him, looping them back in time. ===5th Loop=== The shadow parent goes to Shiori's house and when Ryunosuke attacks, he fights him. He eventually throws Ryunosuke out of the windows and then jumps out and smashes his head. Haine as Shiori reveals that the mark she left on Shinpei allows her to find him and that she can also loop. The shadow parent states they don't need two observers and the surviving one will see the true world. He then attacks Ginjiro, who tries to pin him three times with his nailgun, but that doesn't stop the shadow and he kills Ginjiro. The shadow parent then is about to capture Shinpei, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. The shadow attempts to kill Ushio, but she loops back with Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow, The shadow parent - Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and more later, they go after Shinpei at the elementary school. Mio kills the scouting Ginjiro and Shide takes his rifle, snipping and killing Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send Shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Shadow Mio goes to take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making Haine wonder what Shadow Mio is doing. Haine then sees Shadow Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows don't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection between them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with [[Asako Kobayakawa|Asako]] jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Heine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and starts to erase him. Haine scans the air in the gymnasium and erases it , putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows have died from the fire. Shinpei visits Masahito and tells him that he believes the shadow exist and that Masahito was there from the beginning of the Hiruko legend, pointing a gun at him and calling him Shidehiko Hishigata. Shinpei shows him 70 and 40 years old pictures of Masahito and Haine with Masahito and a baby, stating that he is a human-shadow hybrid. As Masahito doesn't deny it, Shinpei eventually feels something is strange and he sees that Masahito doesn't have the burn on the left arm, which Shide received in their last fight. Ushio comes out and kills Masahito, but moments later another Masahito with burnt left arm shows up and stabs Ushio with a spear and then slashes her. Shinpei shoots three times at him, but Masahito turns into Shide, blocking the bullets and throws his spear piercing Shinpei and sending him flying outside the shrine and pinning him to a tree. Shide then tells him that he should have been a bit more objective, but now with Ushio dead, he will loop back only with despair and regret. ===8th Loop=== At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. After they go through the portal, he uses Hiruko's memory of the WWII air bombing to recreate it into Hiruko's world, Tokoyo, as her memories are connected to it. He bombs Ushio and her group, but Haine, the little girl's personality is with them and helps them stop the bombing. Ushio then comes and attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. However, due to the injuries, Ushio cannot continue to fight. Shide then faces Shinpei, who is controlled by Ryunosuke and manages to cut his left arm and heavily injure him. Shinpei is still sure of his victory as he still has the eye, which means that eventually Ushio gives it to him. Shide states he just wants to live and had lived for 326 years by swapping bodies. However, as Haine weakened, he feared he lives his last live with Masahito's body. However, few months ago he decided that if he can't live to see the world until its end, he will then end it himself. Shide proceeds to attack Shinpei, but Shinpei manages to reach the shotgun. Unknown to Shide, Ushio had turned herself into shotgun shells and as Shinpei shoots him, he erases Shide's armor. At the same time, Shide in the real world is too old and cannot move or see without the armor and falls to the ground.

It was his first return to "Hitogashima" in Wakayama City in two years. However, stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. Shinpei feels a little strange, but the time peacefully passes. The island comes alive with preparations for the summer festival, and Shinpei and Ushio are finally reunited. ==Summary== On July 22nd, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] wakes up on the boat that heads to Hitogashima. He sees [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] is sitting in front of him and cries, happy that she is alive and reveals her true identity. Shinpei then gets off the boat, he feels a deja vu that he has been recently here and wonders how he knew that Hizuru is Nagumo Ryunosuke. He sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] coming with a bike and prepares to stop her from falling into the sea, but she uses her brakes and stops. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] and [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] also show to greet him. Shinpei then wonders why he came back as he feels he was worried about them. Sou explains that he called him yesterday and told him that if he doesn't come, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] is gonna beat him up. While heading to the Kofune, Ushio sees them and rushes to punch Shinpei, but stops her fist. She tries to be casual and tells him that he decided to come back, but Shinpei states he came back because she left him a voice message. Shinpei listen to the voice message from Ushio, and she asks him to come during the summer festival, and threatens to beat him up. However, she calls him "Ajiro", which makes him recall a dream he had where someone told him the island would disappear. Shinpei then decided to head to Hitogashima to see for himself if everyone is okay. Shinpei goes to the store, where he sees [[Shiori Kobayakawa|Shiori]] and some other kids, who are surprised to see him back and explain that Ushio was right as she kept repeating that Shinpei was coming back. Shinpei then heads to the Hito Shrine, where he sees Iwao Karikiri, who introduces him to his son Yamato, wondering if Shinpei remembers him and Shinpei confirms. Iwao is happy that nothing bad had happened this year, but Yamato recalls that Ushio lost her pendant on the beach the other day and have spend days searching it. Shinpei hears the waves and excuses himself and heads towards the beach. At the beach, Shinpei sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains the other day she had a dream of losing Shinpei and didn't want the last time they saw each other to be when he left for Tokyo, and that's why she called. She then acts of catching his shadow and so does Shinpei. He then notices the seashell pendant and Ushio is happy to get it back, explaining she lost it two days ago while cleaning the beach. Shinpei then puts the pendant back on her neck. On July 24th, at Kofune Restaurant, Hizuru signs a copy of her book for Shinpei. He reveals that he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then considers its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke enters with his wife, Asako, and daughters, Shiori and Haine. Haine greets and thanks Hizuru for the present for her birthday, and notes that tomorrow is Ushio's birthday. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new book and despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru doesn't want to tell him about her new book and instead wants to learn more about his dream as she finds his story interesting. In the evening, at the festival, Sou asks Shinpei to give him strength and Shinpei realizes he still likes Mio. Shinpei then sees Hizuru, who is writing her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement as Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Ushio calls Shinpei, asking him where he is and hearing about Sou, she states she knows that he loves Mio and that he already confessed last year and she turned him down. Sou again confesses to Mio, who wonders what he likes about her. Shinpei heads to the beach to meet with Ushio, after buying her takoyaki as she requested. However, Ushio is disappointed at how little he brought as they had a promise. As she tries to remember the promise, she and Shinpei remember it at the same time that he promised to buy her 10 or 100 when she was sneaking at the shadows only door in the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes Shinpei back.

However, Ushio, who was not "supposed to be there" yet, appears. Ushio, like Shinpei, had looped back from the summer festival on the 24th. Surprised by the sudden turn of events, Shinpei tries to sort out the situation, but is suddenly and unexpectedly attacked by Mio's "shadow". Shinpei avoids being killed with the help of Ushio, but Ushio's arm is cut open instead. ==Summary== [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears behind [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and is happy to see he is making his curry. Shinpei is surprised and comments that she should have appeared on 24th at the festival. Ushio wonders how he knows that and explains that some shadow-like monsters would appear at the festival and eat everyone. Shinpei realizes that she had already been at the festival, which makes Ushio wonder if he too was already there. As [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] comes in, Shinpei hides Ushio under the counter, her stomach rumbles and Mio comments it sounds like his sisters, but is glad as if he is hungry, it means he is okay. Shinpei proceeds with cooking. Once [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] comes, he gives a note to Ushio, telling her that in five minutes, Alain will go to the washroom and then Mio will go to the rest room. While they are gone, Ushio should go to Shinpei's room. Once he done everything as before and the cooking is done, Shinpei states he is quite hungry and takes two plates and heads into his room. Once inside his room, Shinpei sees Ushio, who is eagerly waiting for the curry. Shinpei wonders why Shadow Ushio managed to loop with him and asks her from where she came. Ushio explains she walked from Omoto Beach, where she woke up. Recalling Mio calling her a "monster", Ushio states she stayed out of sight and no one saw her. Shinpei touches Ushio's shadow, who gets startled and states that tickled. Shinpei is ready to kill her, seeing she is totally off-guard, but recalls she did help him. Shinpei recalls when he told Ushio that he will be going to Tokyo and entering a culinary school. He told her that he can't keep being a burden to Kofune family, but in reality, he loves Ushio and can't keep being her step-brother. On his last day on the island, Ushio requested he to make her curry, but Shinpei was busy with packing his stuff and told her next time. Shadow Ushio tells Shinpei that she is glad to be able to again eat his curry, which causes Shinpei to decide to not kill her. Ushio tells him that she wants to stop the monsters and both agree to work together to prevent the events at the festival. Shinpei wonders if Ushio can copy people, but Ushio isn't able to. In ten minutes, Shadow Mio is to appear. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] who turned into her brother Ryunosuke, asks [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] if he is in position and he confirms. He also tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei said as prey tends to be unpredictable. Ryunosuke sends a message to Shinpei, asking if there are any changes. Shinpei then wonders if he should tell about Ushio, but ends up not responding. He asks Ushio if she ain't going to change clothes. Ushio then realizes its indeed weird to stay in a swimsuit, but in that moment, her swimsuit starts to disappear. As she ends up naked, she punches Shinpei for seeing her and asks him to give her some clothes. He gives her a shirt and explains that Mio's shadow is coming. He points out there is no point in locking up, as the shadows can withdraw into their shadows an enter from the smallest cracks, which makes Ushio attempt to do it, but fails. Shinpei also explains that Mio's shadow haven't entered the house before, so there is nothing to worry. Meanwhile, a shadow entered the house. Mio comes to Shinpei's room and Ushio hides under the blanket. Mio is there to take the dishes, but is surprised that Shinpei used two spoons and glasses, but guesses its because Ushio came, explaining that at Hitogashima the souls of the dead return to their homes and become protective deities. Mio leaves, but returns in few seconds, which scares Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, he notices that she is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio then attempts to stab him, but Ushio protects him and takes the hit. Ushio then pushes Mio back, but she enters her shadow and comes out and stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Shinpei realizes he can't win and opens the curtains and challenges Mio. Mio then looks at Ushio and asks her why she protect him, as he, Hizuru and Ginjiro had killed a shadow. Ushio states she loves Shinpei and there is nothing wrong in siding with the one you love. Mio starts yelling that Ushio died and turns towards Shinpei to kill him. In that moment, Ginjiro blows her head through the window. Shinpei drops on his knees and stabs Mio's shadow. As Shadow Mio dies, she wonders why as she too loves him. Ryunosuke enters Shinpei's room and as he is about to smash Ushio's head, Shinpei protects her with his body, stopping Ryunosuke. Shinpei states he knows that Ryunosuke hates Shadows and their goal is to eliminate them all, but Ushio had saved him twice, shielding him with her own body. Shinpei begs Hizuru to save Ushio and threat her wound. Ryunosuke turns to Hizuru and states that if he sides with the shadow, she will kill him too. Shinpei doesn't care and states he will loop again and convince her next time. Ushio asks if the real Mio is okay. Hizuru confirms and states she is in the bathroom. Hizuru then realizes Ushio's voice is the same as the message she received that led her to the island and decides to help her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Ushio panics, but then states it doesn't hurt. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru explains that she was regular at the Kofune restaurant before, but Ushio doesn't remember her. Hizuru then plays her the message, in which Ushio states that the Shadows kill everyone at the festival, requesting Hizuru's help and that the only one who can stop them is Shinpei Ajiro. However, Ushio has no memories of it too. Ginjiro wonders why Mio shadow acted differently this time and entered the house. Shinpei states she knew they killed Shiori. Hizuru guesses that Mio acknowledged them as threat and moved to eliminate them. In the other loops, they were after Hizuru and Ginjiro, but in this loop, they know that Shinpei is with them. Shinpei wonders how they know that, since they killed all the shadows at Kobayakawas. Hizuru tells him that they can't continue to work together if he intends to stick with Ushio's shadow. She agrees that Ushio at the moment has no ill intention and is probably faulty, but at some point she may get "fixed". As they leave, Shinpei tells Hizuru that on 23rd, just past 3PM, she got killed by Mio's shadow in the forest around the shrine. While Mio is now defeated, a replacement may still come. In the morning of 23rd, Ushio is hungry and Shinpei goes to take some food. He visits Mio, who spend the night talking to Tokiko, and tells her that he is awaken, so she doesn't need to go to his room. Mio then gives him the shell necklace, which Shinpei then shows to Ushio, but she doesn't remember anything additional. Shinpei proceeds doing what he did on 23rd and goes to work at the restaurant. He receives Ushio's phone from [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] and [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] comes to the restaurant. Knowing that it will later rain, Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they go out. Sou states he needs to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio appears behind him and comments its the strangle marks, meaning she was likely killed. Sou confirms, but then realizes its Ushio and is shocked. Shinpei and Ushio then tell him everything. At the end Sou apologizes for not doing enough to save Ushio and states she can punch him. In that moment, Ushio kicks him, wondering if he is happy now and to stand up as they are relying on him. They are at the private beach where Ushio died, but Shadow Ushio has no memories. Shinpei gives her phone, stating he wanted to look through it, but it was locked. Ushio realizes the password had changed, but unlocks it with her fingerprint. As she looks at it, she sees there is a video from 20th in the morning, the day she died. ==Characters== *[[Ushio Kofune]] *[[Shinpei Ajiro]] *[[Mio Kofune]] *[[Alain Kofune]] *[[Hizuru Minakata]] *[[Ginjiro Nezu]] *[[Tetsu Totsumura]] *[[Sou Hishigata]] [[Category:Episodes]] 10d9c9aa80c1ad82b76ea62f92bc81bf80810eb4 0 225 1516 1480 2023-02-25T10:12:52Z 172.15.76.178 0 Nut sack wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Mio Kofune | image = Mio Kofune.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = [[Ushio Kofune]] (older sister)<br/>[[Shinpei Ajiro]] (childhood friend/ love interest)<br/>(not reciprocated)<br/>[[Alain Kofune]] (father) | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species =Nut sack | gender = Female | height = | weight = | eyes =Blue | portrayedby = Saho Shirasu | appearsin = | debut =[[Episode 1]] }}'''Mio Kofune''' (小舟澪, ''Kofune Mio'') is Ushio's younger sister and a first-year high school student. She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== Mio can be described as a shy yet cheerful girl, who is also very protective and kind willing to do whatever it takes to keep her loved ones safe. She is also shown to be quite bubbly at times, and also harbors feelings for Shinpei Ajiro. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since Seido Hishigata may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Later, when the group finds Seido and teams up with him, outside the house, Shadow Mio talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio. Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. The next day, when Shinpei was leaving with Ushio to find and kill shadows, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk about when he returns. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Mio is happy to have let it out of her chest, but as she returns to her room, she cries over Tokiko's shoulder. Shadow Mio states that if they defeat Haine, Ushio will be gone and if Mio asked if she would have a chance then. However, Mio couldn't ask that and knows that Shinpei isn't a playboy. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Mio and the rest meet up with Shinpei as he arrives at Hitogashima. On 24th, they go to the festival, where Sou confesses his feelings to Mio and she asks him what he likes about her. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟).

They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since Seido Hishigata may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Later, when the group finds Seido and teams up with him, outside the house, Shadow Mio talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio. Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. The next day, when Shinpei was leaving with Ushio to find and kill shadows, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk about when he returns. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Mio is happy to have let it out of her chest, but as she returns to her room, she cries over Tokiko's shoulder. Shadow Mio states that if they defeat Haine, Ushio will be gone and if Mio asked if she would have a chance then. However, Mio couldn't ask that and knows that Shinpei isn't a playboy. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Mio and the rest meet up with Shinpei as he arrives at Hitogashima. On 24th, they go to the festival, where Sou confesses his feelings to Mio and she asks him what he likes about her. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). * Mio is half black french and japanese [[Category:Characters]] [[Category:Females]] fc7b466a3c1fec7faf70b6c41b53c24ded4a7e1c 1545 1520 2023-04-14T07:09:41Z Tortoise8 46084942 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Mio Kofune | image = Mio Kofune.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = [[Ushio Kofune]] (older sister)<br/>[[Shinpei Ajiro]] (childhood friend/ love interest)<br/>(not reciprocated)<br/>[[Alain Kofune]] (father) | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species =Human | gender = Female | height = | weight = | eyes =Blue | portrayedby = Saho Shirasu (Japanese)<br>Merk Nguyen (English) | appearsin = | debut =[[Episode 1]] }}'''Mio Kofune''' (小舟澪, ''Kofune Mio'') is Ushio's younger sister and a first-year high school student. She is good at sports, belongs to the swimming club, and has tanned skin. Despite the death of her older sister, she has a healthy side, such as her cheerful attitude toward Shinpei when he returns home. ==Appearance== Mio is a young girl with medium long black hair and blue eyes. She also has a tanned skin. ==Personality== Mio can be described as a shy yet cheerful girl, who is also very protective and kind willing to do whatever it takes to keep her loved ones safe. She is also shown to be quite bubbly at times, and also harbors feelings for Shinpei Ajiro. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, [[Shinpei Ajiro]] returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. The next day, Shinpei and Mio work at Kofune's dinner. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident with Ushio. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. ===3rd Loop=== On his third time stepping on Hitogashima, Shinpei manages to stop Mio from falling in the water, but he ends up falling in it and she jumps to save him. That evening, he records the Shadow Mio outside of their house and in the morning shows Mio the footage, explaining its a Shadow that came to kill her. As he is aware of Ushio seeing her shadow, Mio guesses that Ushio told him that and Mio then realizes that Ushio was likely killed by her Shadow. Mio tells him that Shiori also saw her shadow, but Shinpei decides to go alone. Later, Shinpei returns to Kofune's Diner, and moments later Tetsu comes, explaining that Kobayakawa family is gone. As Sou comes, Shinpei tells them about everything and Mio suggest they visit the priest as he may know something. The group then decide to go during the Summer Festival tomorrow. The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue.

The next day, they go to the festival, but before meeting the priest, Shinpei sees something and runs, leaving them. When the fireworks stop, Mio calls Shinpei, but hears Ushio. She is shocked, but Shinpei explains she is imagining it. Mio then tells him to come to the shrine and soon Shinpei returns to them. [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] uses the chance and confesses to Mio, but as Mio loves Shinpei, she tells Sou she just wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio doesn't believe that's Ushio and calls her a monster, warning Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei refuses and grabs Ushio, wondering what she was thinking for trying to switch places with someone who had public funeral. The group then realizes that Shinpei is a shadow. Other shadows come and they start killing people. Shadow Sou attempts to kill Sou, but Sou uses his body to protect Mio. The real Shinpei then arrives and they attempt to reach each other, but she ends up being consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, at the funeral, Shinpei asks Mio if she wore white panties yesterday. He recalls that Shadow Mio had white panties, but today Mio is with different color. Mio finds it weird that he would ask her something like that after they haven't seen each other for so long, but after he tells her its important for him to know, she confirms it. At home, Mio decided to cook to make Shinpei feel better. As he finds her doing it, he decides to take over and tells her to go wash herself. When Mio returns, she hears his stomach rumble and relaxes as she guesses that means she is fine. Shinpei goes to eat in his room and takes two plates. Later, Mio comes to take the plates, but is surprised he ate from two spoons and used two glasses, guessing that Ushio visited and explaining that in Hitogashima, they believe that the soul of the dead returns to their home and protects the family as their deity. She ends up spending the night talking to Tokiko on the phone and in the morning gives the shell necklace to Shinpei. Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Mio tries to call Shinpei and Sou, but they don't pick their phones. She sees Shiori, who whispers that Shinpei is that way. Heading to the corner at the street, Mio encounters [[Tetsu Totsumura]] and they see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. She is then captured by the shadow parent, who brings her to Heine and uses her as a hostage to make the others obey. When the shadow no longer needs her, he crushes her skull and kills her in front of Shinpei. ===6th Loop=== Mio along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Mio apologizes for calling Ushio a monster, but Ushio plays it cool. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Mio agrees. ===7th Loop=== Mio and Ushio find Shinpei at home and explain that he was taken out by a sniper rifle. Shinpei explains first to them and then to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since Seido Hishigata may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Later, when the group finds Seido and teams up with him, outside the house, Shadow Mio talks with Mio and reveals that Mio hates everything about herself as she is exactly the opposite of Ushio. Shadow Mio tells her that she must tell Shinpei how she feels or she will do it, but the real Mio refuses, stating she can't do it. The next day, when Shinpei was leaving with Ushio to find and kill shadows, Mio tells him that there is something she wants to talk about when he returns. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Mio is happy to have let it out of her chest, but as she returns to her room, she cries over Tokiko's shoulder. Shadow Mio states that if they defeat Haine, Ushio will be gone and if Mio asked if she would have a chance then. However, Mio couldn't ask that and knows that Shinpei isn't a playboy. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Mio and the rest meet up with Shinpei as he arrives at Hitogashima. On 24th, they go to the festival, where Sou confesses his feelings to Mio and she asks him what he likes about her. == Etymology == * The name '''Mio''' means "water route, shipping channel" (澪). * Mio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). * Mio is half black french and japanese [[Category:Characters]] [[Category:Females]] 428e1de15afdce4df6d2cea54498f6459b1a5b2f 0 227 1518 1486 2023-02-28T06:42:22Z 106.215.207.189 0 Alive status wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Hizuru Minakata | image = <center><tabber> |-|Adult= [[File:Hizuru Minakata.png]] |-|Young= [[File:Brain.png|thumb]] </tabber></center> | imagecaption = | aliases = Ryunosuke Nagumo | relatives =[[Ryunosuke Minakata]] (younger twin brother)<br/> [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] (niece, <small>11th loop</small>)<br/>[[Haine]] (niece, <small>11th loop</small>)<br/> [[Asako Kobayakawa]] (sister-in-law, <small>11th loop</small>) | affiliation = | occupation = | Status = Deceased | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = | gender = Female | height = 172 cm | weight = 60 kg | eyes = | portrayedby = Youko Hikasa | appearsin = | debut = Manga: Chapter 1 Anime: [[Episode 1]] }}'''Hizuru Minakata''' (南方 ひづる, ''Minakata Hizuru'') is a mysterious woman, who visits the island for the first time in 14 years for a certain reason. She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to even more wonder if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up.

Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own.

Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up.

Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately.

He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside.

After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her.

Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

He was killed by [[Heine]] and his data was accidentally send into Hizuru. ==Appearance== ==Personality== Ryunosuke compared to his older twin sister, is much more expressive and lively. ==Plot== ===History=== Ryunosuke and Hizuru visit the Kofune restaurant for its anniversary. As its full, Hizuru wishes to go, but Asako stops her, sayings its the 10th anniversary of Kofune restaurant and she should celebrate with the rest. Asako wonders if Hizuru is in a bad mood and Ryunosuke states its his fault. She told him she made a friend, but she joked it must be a dream. Asako wonders where Hizuru met her new friend and Hizuru states Mt. Takanosu. At Hishigata's old clinic in the mountain. Hizuru takes Asako and Ryunosuke to meet her new friend. Hizuru explains that she always appears at the same time, but as they wait, no one shows up. Ryunosuke and Asako decide to leave, but Hizuru had promised to meet her friend today, so she decides to stay. Moments later, Heine shows up and Hizuru greets her. Months later, Asako and Ryunosuke check the Kobe mart, hearing that Hizuru brought snacks and intended to eat them with a friend, making them realize she is meeting Heine. Ryunosuke heads towards the clinic to bring some water to Hizuru. On his way, he hears something and goes to check it. He sees Heine, who was bloody and eating a small animal. Hizuru sees a flash and upon checking it, she finds Heine over the dead Ryunosuke. Hizuru wonders if she did it. Heine comes back to her sense, and turns into Ryunosuke. She starts denying it and as she yells, a flash occurs and her eye is blown away. Hizuru's covers her left eye, but her right is exposed to the light and receives Ryunosuke's data. Feeling pain, Heine then retreats in her shadow. Two stray incomplete shadows appear, looking like a mother and child. The child shadow runs towards Hizuru, but Ginjiro appears and attacks it.

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's Father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== Unlike many other people in the show, Haine is a character who lacks empathy or remorse. She is relentless while feeding off of souls to awaken and strengthen her power. Despite her ancient existence, Haine is oftentimes spoiled and immature, automatically assuming she is entitled to overpower and consume any living person regardless of their morals or abilities. Haine’s childlike behavior can only be assumed to be a reflection of her appearance. She relies heavily on Four Arms to protect her the same time he is defeating Haine’s foes, and expects her firstborn to be the victor due to his overpowered capabilities in combat. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name, Hiruko (ヒルコ, 蛭子) translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== Unlike many other people in the show, Haine is a character who lacks empathy or remorse. She is relentless while feeding off of souls to awaken and strengthen her power. Despite her ancient existence, Haine is oftentimes spoiled and immature, automatically assuming she is entitled to overpower and consume any living person regardless of their morals or abilities. Haine’s childlike behavior can only be assumed to be a reflection of her appearance.

As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7 Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name, Hiruko (ヒルコ, 蛭子) translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

He is soft-spoken and easy to talk to, but his long stories are his weak point. ==Appearance== Masahito is an young adult man with medium long light brown hair. He wears glasses and is usually in his priest uniform. ==Personality== ==Plot== Masahito performs the funeral of [[Ushio Kofune]] and calls [[Shinpei Ajiro]] to help with the procession. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, at the funeral, Masahito recognizes [[Hizuru Minakata]], even though its been fourteen years. She asks him if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and he confirms. He wonders why she came back, but as she was replying, he interrupts her, guessing she studied for being a teacher or doctor. Hizuru gets annoyed and tells him she remembered why she couldn't stand him. Masahito then calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. At the funeral crematorium, Shinpei asks him if he knows about the shadow sickness and Masahito confirms as it was his grandfather who named it. As he describes the woman on the boat, Masahito guesses he is talking about Hizuru. === 7th Loop === Shinpei goes to speak with Masahito at the shrine. They talk about video games and then Shinpei tells him about the Swamp Man novel, where the protagonist gets replaced by a perfect copy and no one notices. He then retells the Hiruko legend and how the shadow sickness started with the whale that washed ashore, turning to a girl and ate it. Masahito laughs at Shinpei for thinking the shadows are real, but Shinpei throws pictures at him, telling him that he very well knows its true as Masahito was there. Masahito sees a 70 years old picture with him on it, and a 40 years old picture with him, Haine and their child. Shinpei wonders if he should call him Shidehiko Hishigata and that he is a human-shadow hybrid. Masahito then explains that during the famine in 1732, they turned hundred of the islanders into shadows and that way they needed less food to survive, which he believes saved the island. Ushio gets angry and asks him about Shinpei's parents. Masahito then explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public, so he had to kill them, but wonders if they would have been happier if he made them shadows. Masahito notes that Shinpei probably wonders why his arm isn't injured. Ushio unable to take it anymore, shows up and kills Masahito. Moments later, another Masahito who turns into [[Shide]] comes out and kills both Ushio and Shinpei. === 8th Loop === Haine contacts Hizuru and Mio, while having copied Shinpei, and arranges a meeting with them at different locations. She sends one Masahito at Alain's garden, while another takes with her. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. As they fight, Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, Ryunosuke is then able to take control on part of it and creates his own shadow. With half of his armor got, Masahito can no longer maintain his Shide form. Meanwhile, Shinpei and shadow Mio face the other Masahito, who informs them that they are too late and Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. He suggest Mio to kill Shinpei, so that he restarts the loop, but Mio instead cuts Masahito's head, who then states they will meet in the next loop. Shinpei then receives information about the fight with Hizuru and decides to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location.

Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Figuring that Shide has no idea from where Shinpei came, Shinpei loops back. === 10th Loop === Haine realizes that Shinpei looped back and is located in the Hiruko cave and they head towards him with Masahito. They reach them at the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays behind to stop them while the barrier closes. Shide and Haine later still manage to catch up to Shinpei. While Shide fights Ushio, Haine tells him how to dodge, but Shinpei tricks Haine and injures her. Without Haine, Ushio kills Shide immediately. A second Shide appears, but as Ushio punches Hiruko's main body, his mud armor falls off and he is killed by Mio. == Etymology == * The name '''Masahito''' means "real, genuine" (真) ('''ma'''), "sand, grit" (砂) ('''sa''') and "person" (人) ('''hito'''). * Masahito's surname '''Karikiri''' means "goose/wild goose" (雁) ('''kari''') and "cut/cutoff/off, be sharp, ardent, eager, acute, keen" (切) ('''kiri''').

He also wears glasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== At Hishigata Clinic, Seido is with a shadow in a wheelchair. He sees the red light in the sky and comments that [[Heine]] had recovered by consuming thousands of humans. ===4th Loop=== Seido calls Negoro and tells her to use the policeman's, Tadashi Miura's, body as today's food at 9 o'clock. ===7th Loop=== [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]]'s group arrives at the hospital to see all items and furniture erased and traces of a fight that leads them to the basement morgue. There they continue through a hallway that leads to Hiruko Cave, and on the way they find Seido being choked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio stops Chitose and severs their connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko and then Sou, give him first aid and manage to save him. Seeing that they had gotten to this point, Seido realizes that's why Heine wanted to kill him: she was afraid he would tell them everything. He orders Tokiko to kill them, so he could regain Heine's trust, but Tokiko refuses, acknowledging that the shadows betrayed them. Enraged, Seido manages to take the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He turns to Ushio, but Tokiko then stops him, revealing she was actually Shadow Mio. Seido refuses to talk, Shadow Mio attempts to scan him but learns that he is immune. Negoro then shows up with Ushio's body and gives Seido a message from Shide, thanking the Hishigata family for all their help, but this is the end. Realizing he is immune and can't achieve his goal, Seido decides to talk. He reveals that Heine wants to return to her world, which only shadows can reach and he was supposed to join her with his wife Chitose, Tokiko and Sou. Chitose calls him an idiot, but thanks him for saving her, and tells him he can still do the right thing. Seido calls Tokiko to dig up a safe he had given her, containing a list of patients who had died and had been fed to Heine. Including Shinpei's parents. Seido also shows a photo, revealing that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to: Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido reveals Chitose's ashes to Sou, confessing that he couldn't give her body to Heine for food. He reveals that she died from heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that was days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believed it would be too much for Sou to bear and that's why he chose his sister as successor. ===9th=== Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it.

He offers Shinpei to punch him until he feels better, but Shinpei refuses. Sou explains that Ushio died while saving a kid, Shiori Kobayawaka, but the girl haven't spoken since then. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains the rumours about his father performing an autopsy is false, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, given the situation and the police labelled it as an incident and only a few people know about the neck marks. ===3rd Loop=== When Shinpei lives the day for a third time, Sou visits him at Kofune's Diner, where Shinpei tells him about Shadows. [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] suggest they go to Hiruko Shrine and speak with the priest, but Shinpei convinces them to go the next day during the Summer Festival, as being more crowded would be safer. Before leaving, Sou wants them to have a code word and Mio suggest Mesopotamian culture. Sou then leaves, wanting to check on something before tomorrow, but the next when Shinpei asks him, Sou states it was nothing. During the festival as Shinpei blames himself for not protecting Ushio, Sou tells him it wasn't his fault and he need to protect Mio now, but if he doesn't, Sou will protect her for him, making Shinpei realizes that Sou still has feelings for Mio. Sou explains that after the fireworks, the priest would be free and they can visit him then, but Shinpei sees something and leaves the group. When the fireworks end, Mio calls Shinpei and he joins them. After the ceremony, Sou decides to confess to Mio, but Mio explains she wants to be friends with him. Ushio then appears and comforts Sou, but everyone see through her disguise. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei to stay away from her, but Shinpei himself reveals he is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. A shadow that copied Sou, attempts to kill Mio, but Sou uses his body to protect her and Shadow Sou kills him, hitting him in the head with an axe. ===4th Loop=== Sou meets with Shinpei at Kofune's restaurant. Shinpei takes two umbrellas and they leave, which surprises Sou as its sunny outside. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone and after unlocking it, they find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. On their way to the old clinic, Sou reveals that when he was in fourth grade, he tried to sneak in the clinic as Tetsu Totsumura and his friends invited him for a test of courage. However, he wasn't able to get in as his father caught them. Since they owned the clinic, Sou didn't think much of it as it was possible for Seido to be there, but he finds it weird and wonders what his father was doing there. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. Sou wonders what his father is doing as there is a secret door that can only be opened with Shadow's help. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. Tokiko tells Sou that she no longer needs to keep secrets from him, but its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as [[Heine]]. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. ===6th Loop=== Sou along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows and Sou agrees. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Eventually they manage to defeat her and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. As Seido isn't breathing, Tokiko gives him first aid and then Sou takes over, not wanting him to die before answering for what he did. Seido awakens, but wants Tokiko to kill them, so that Heine can gain his trust again. As Tokiko refuses, because the shadows had betrayed them, Seido takes the gun from Sou and shoots Tokiko. He then attempts to shoot Ushio, but Tokiko turns into Shadow Mio and stops him. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything. Heine wanted to return to her world, and Seido, Chitose, Sou and Tokiko would going her as shadows> Seido also reveals that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Seido shows Sou, Chitose's ashes, as he couldn't give her body to Heine to eat. He reveals that she died from a heart failure on January 3rd, 2013. Sou realizes that is days before the supposed surgery where they found a donor. Seido reveals that Hishigata had been serving the shadows for over 300 years and there has always been only one successor. He believe it will be too much for Sou to bear all this and he values life, and that's why he chose his sister as successor. Next day, the group is split in two teams and Sou is left with Mio and Shadow Mio to wait at the Kofune restaurant. ===8th Loop=== Mio and Sou receives a call from Shinpei, informing them that Ushio is dead and tells them to meet him at Alain's garden. Thinking that Ushio's hack could be undone, Mio pins shadow Mio and leave. Mio and Sou then head to the garden, where they meet Masahito, who turns into Shide. Sou and Mio are captured by Masahito and are then send for Haine, where she eats them. ===9th Loop=== Mio and Sou are heading towards Alain's garden, but Shinpei and Shadow Mio come out from the sewers and stop them. Shinpei wonders if her phone is turned off and Mio confirms, since he told her that a shadow may contact them. Shadow Mio tells her that it already happened, making Mio realize previous call was from a shadow Shinpei. Mio apologizes to Shadow Mio for pinning her, but Shadow Mio is fine with it and had scanned Mio to heal her wounds. Shinpei then tells Sou and Mio to return to Kofune's and protect the kids. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. Sou recalls the pseudo-loops that Ushio showed them and that he confessed at Mio and she turned him down. He wonders if Mio also remembers that. Mio then shows up looking for Shinpei and Sou tries asking her again, but Mio acts like she is shadow Mio and states nothing changed. Sou then states she likes Shinpei and Mio starts to panic and blush, making him state she ain't the shadow, but confirms that her feelings for Sou and Shinpei have not changed. Sou then states that Shinpei said he will be on the roof. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Sou and the rest meet up with Shinpei as he arrives at Hitogashima. Last year, Sou confessed to Mio, but she turned him down. This year, on 24th, they go to the festival, where Sou again confesses his feelings to Mio and she asks him what he likes about her. == Etymology == * The name '''Sou''' means "window" (窓). * Sou's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

She is intelligent and has the top grades in her grade, but she is physically weak and not good at sports. She and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] have known each other since childhood and are classmates at the same high school. ==Appearance== Tokiko is a young girl with a long red hair braided in a tail. ==Personality== Tokiko seems to be in love with Mio. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Tokiko joins [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] to visit the Summer Festival with them. Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Tokiko remains in the car with Ginjiro and Mio. She had let Shadow Mio copy her and join the group. Tokiko also wanted Shadow Mio to learn everything about her and her feelings. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. When Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, she no longer can fight and Tokiko comes with the two shadows and helps her fight Shide. However, things don't go well and Tokiko barely escape thanks to Ginjiro and Tetsu. She manages to follow Shadow Mio's trace and finds Shinpei with her. As Tokiko is fatally injured, before she dies, she tells Shinpei to save Ryunosuke and Hizuru on Torajima. Shadow Mio then scan her memories and show them to Shinpei, who decides to restart the loop. ===9th Loop=== Knowing how Hizuru would fight, Shide easily defeats her. Tokiko attacks with the a stray shadow, but Shide easily kills the shadow. Shinpei then comes and Haine decides to leave. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio, while the group is in Tokiko's stray shadow inside the Hiruko Cave. They proceed towards Hiruko's main body, but on their way, they face a shadow who shoot out teeth and attempts to pin the stray with them. Tokiko breaks part of the cave to create a wall from the debris and decides to stay and fight the shadow with her stray, while the group proceeds towards Hiruko. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

He is so lighthearted that it is hard to believe that he is a police officer. ==Appearance== Tetsu is an adult man with messy orange hair. He is usually in his police uniform and wears yellow glass sunglasses. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== The evening of [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]'s funeral, Tetsu sees [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] standing in front of her house and looking inside. The next day, he misses breakfast and goes at lunch at Kofune's dinner and orders the usual. Mio takes his order and wonder why he didn't came in the morning and Tetsu explains that the whole Kobayakawa family is gone, making him believe that they had a debt and ran in the middle of the night. ===2nd Loop=== On the second time Shinpei arrived on Hitogashima, he goes outside to take some fresh air. There he sees when Tetsu found Mio staring at her house. Tetsu wonders what is she doing, but Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife. She then produces a shadow, which copies Tetsu's appearance and takes on his identity. Mio wants Tetsu's gun, making the Shadow realize, she has not yet killed the real Mio. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, in the evening, Shinpei calls Tetsu and reports a fake fight. As Tetsu goes to check out the fight, he avoids meeting Shadow Mio. The next day, Tetsu gets called to investigate the missing Kobayakawa family. He later goes to Kofune's Diner and sees Shinpei, ready to scold him for the fake fight report, but Shinpei asks him if he wants the usual and Tetsu confirms. Tetsu reveals the Kobayakawa family is gone and that a detective will be coming from mainland this evening. He then gives to Shinpei a phone that Ushio had left him and told him to give to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, a day before she died. ===4th Loop=== Tetsu is on his way to the bar to drink and talk with Erika, but encounters Mio, who wonders if he saw Shiori, but he denies it. The two then see Shiori pointing at a manhole, which is slightly opened. Tetsu doesn't want to go there as he will stink and Erika won't like him, but Mio states that if he finds the missing girl, he will be a hero and girls will be all over him. That convinces Tetsu, who then leads them into the sewers. Following the sewers, Tetsu starts to complain, but Mio tells him he will tell Erika how brave he is, so he decides to continue. They reach a dead end, but Shiori flashes and eats the iron bars, allowing them to proceed. Tetsu finds badly injured Ryunosuke who switches to Hizuru, who asks where is Mio. Tetsu reveals that a monster showed up and took her. She wonders about his gun, but he guesses he dropped it. He tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and fell, and then ran. Hizuru states he made the right choice. She asks him to carry her, deeper into the cave. As he takes her, she shoots at the shadow parent and frees, Shinpei, but then gets killed by it. The shadow then shoots and kills Tetsu. ===6th Loop=== Tetsu along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tetsu find it crazy and suicide, but as the rest agree, he agrees too. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Looking at Tetsu, she wonder why is he even there, but hands him a gun and tells him to do his best to survive. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. == Etymology == * The name '''Tetsu''' means "philosophy" (哲). * Tetsu's surname '''Totsumura''' means "convex, beetle brow, uneven" (凸) ('''totsu''') and "town, village" (村) ('''mura''').

He lives on Hitogashima Island and appears to know something about "shadows". ==Appearance== Ginjiro is an elderly man with gray hair, beard and moustache. He wears an eyepatch on his left eye and is usually wearing a red hat. ==Personality== Appearing mysterious and serious much like [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]], Nezu is a seasoned hunter with a good aim and one of the only people having some experience combating shadows. Though serious and calm outwardly, he hides emotional trauma of his wife turning into a shadow which he overcomes by finally slaying his wife's shadow, an act witnessed by [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]]. He is also shown to be thoroughly acquainted with [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]], who considers him one of the only people on the island trustworthy enough. This camaraderie is later revealed to stem from Nezu being the one to help Hizuru when she was threatened by a berserk [[Haine]] who had killed [[Ryunosuke Minakata|Ryunosuke]] and one of the people whose shadow had been slain and now couldn't be copied again. ==Plot== === 1st Loop === Ginjiro hears [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] talking about Shiori seeing herself and tells them its a shadow. Ginjiro then explains that shadow sickness used to be common on the island before the war, and those afflicted see their shadow and later gets killed by it. The shadow then takes their place in the family and kills the family too. His grandfather told him that those afflicted would go to Hiruko to be cleansed. === 3rd Loop === Ginjiro was in his house, when he saw the red light in the sky, where everyone on the island got consumed. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] meets with Ginjiro and tells him that the whole Kobayakawas are shadows. As their numbers increase, Ginjiro states that there must be one that can produce more shadows. Hizuru guesses that shadow Shiori drowned Shiori and erased her, and then acted as the one drowning and later killed all of the Kobayakawas. She gives Ginjiro her second phone and asks him to call her if it rings. Shinpei soon calls the phone and after both introduce themselves, Ginjiro tells him to return to the funeral hall alone. He tells Shinpei to stand still and then shoots his shadow on the ground. Confirming he is a human, he calls Hizuru and invites Shinpei to the fourth battery. As Shinpei comes, Ginjiro explains that they have a questions too and that to solve Hizuru's note code, he must know she is Ryunosuke, but that is only something he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, Shinpei is human. Hizuru reveals herself and after a short conversation she guesses that Shinpei is a time traveler, which Shinpei confirms. Shinpei explains the events of the shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro points out that they will be going after Hizuru as shadows always go after the rest of the family. Shinpei then starts worrying about Alain, but Hizuru states she killed his shadow. Ginjiro tells Shinpei that once a shadow is killed, the person it was copying gains immunity and can never be copied again and that he is an example of that. Shinpei wants help to kill shadow Mio, but Hizuru wishes to deal with the Kobayakwas first. Shinpei tells them that Shiori was at the festival and must had escaped Hizuru and wants to join them. In front of the Kobayakawas house, Hizuru tells them Ginjiro and Shinpei to stay. She listens to her phone and then enters the house. Shinpei wonders what she was listening to and Ginjiro tells him that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei then guesses that Hizuru has dual personality and Ginjiro sort of confirms. He tells Shinpei that Hizuru found her dead brother fourteen years ago with bite marks, but they were a distraction for the strangle marks on his neck. No one believed her it was a murder and they cremated his body. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but comments he missed the third pin and Shiori manages to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question her and learn that she killed Ushio and that she believes she is reborn and the is now the real Shiori. Ryunosuek then kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow, you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces as Hizuru's younger brother. He guesses that Shinpei likes her novels, but Ginjiro states he is actually a freaky fan of her work. That surprises Ryunosuke as it wasn't mentioned in the notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over. They form a plan and head towards the Kofune house. Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do, while they wait for shadow Mio. About 10 minutes before Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not rely on everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains and Ginjiro and Ryunosuke see Mio inside. Ginjiro then blows her head through the window and Shinpei kills her. Afterwards, Hizuru decides that they will stop working with Shinpei as he intends to stay with shadow Ushio. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. === 5th Loop === Shinpei returns from a loop at the moment he meets with Hizuru. As Ushio also comes with him, Ginjiro points his weapon at her, but Shinpei and Hizuru tells him to lower it. Shinpei tells them everything and thinks they failed since they worked separately. Hizuru agrees to work together. Ushio suggest they go and capture Shiori again, as she believes she could erase her. They go at the Kobayakawas and Ginjiro and the rest stay outside while Ryunosuke enters the house. Moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window and then killed by the four-armed shadow. Heine as Shiori, reveals that she can track Shinpei and can loop as well. The shadow attacks Ginjiro, who shoots and pins its shadow three times, but it has no effect and the four-armed shadow doesn't stop and kills Ginjiro. === 6th Loop === Shinpei loops back while the group is heading towards the Kobayakawas and aborts the mission. They form a new plan to fight the shadows at the elementary school. While the group is preparing, Ginjiro takes a snipe spot on a hill, waiting for the shadows to come. He hears a noise, but its end up being just an animal, however, in that moment, Mio's shadow comes from behind and kills him. ===7th Loop === Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Ginjiro wonders how they share information and Ushio explains it can be like the memories she showed them, physical notes or talk to each other, however, Heine can also use telepathy. Ginjiro guesses they may have copied his rifle, but Ushio explains the copies can only exist within 50 meters of a shadow. Ginjiro then realizes that a copied rifle can only shoot up to 50 meters, which isn't good enough for a rifle. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide to arrive. When they do and Shinpei runs with Ushio, Ginjiro shoots at Shide's shadow, but confirms that it had no effect. He then proceeds to shoot and kill other shadows. Shide aims and shoots a rock at Ginjiro, injuring his cheek. Heine sends shadow Mio after him, but the group protect him from her. Ginjiro then saves Hizuru by shooting Shide when he was about to kill her, allowing her to escape. When things calm down and the group can relax, at night, Ginjiro tries to sneak out, but Ushio finds him. He explains he needs to get home for something and not wanting to let him alone, she decides to come with him. At his place, he tells her to stay outside and he will come in a moment, but Ushio doesn't listen and enters with him. Ginjiro yells at her, but Ushio explains she felt a shadow. Ginjiro reveals that his wife is a shadow and he had her pinned and unable to move. Two months ago, she went to the farm and returned as a shadow. She tried copying him and flashed him, but since he had immunity and knew what it was, he reacted and pinned her with his nailgun. As his wife starts to act weird, Ushio guesses that the telepathy signal that made Chitose wild, also got to his wife. Ginjiro decides to finish her off. Ushio proposes to hack her and turn her to normal, but Ginjiro refuses as she will still be a shadow. Wanting to have a closure, Ushio agrees and leaves, while Ginjiro shoots Kaoru and apologizes to her. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Later Hizuru gives a signal and they assist her, but as things turn bad, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko escape. ===9th Loop=== Shinpei arrives at Torajima, witnessing Shide defeating one of Tokiko's stray shadows and also the defeated Hizuru. Shide explains that thanks to Shinpei restarting the loop, he could fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, made the fight easy. Ginjiro then realizes why they went right away for his rifle and also knew his location. Believing they don't have a chance, he wants them to run, but Shinpei refuses to leave Hizuru. Haine then retreats with Shide and the group witness the final moments of Hizuru. Ginjiro tells Sou that if they stayed together, they may not have saved the three children. Shinpei had to choose who to save and choosing Sou and Mio, guaranteed Hizuru's death. Sou states that Shinpei is taking all the responsibility and carries all the burden himself, and is annoyed he couldn't help. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Ginjiro lives his normal life, helping out cleaning the beach and later visits the festival with his wife. == Etymology == * The name '''Ginjiro''' means "silver/silver coin/silver paint" (銀) ('''gin'''), "next" (次) ('''ji''') and "" (郎) ('''ro'''). * Ginjiro's surname '''Nezu''' means "root" (根) ('''ne''') and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) ('''tsu'''/'''zu''').

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== Unlike many other people in the show, Haine is a character who lacks empathy or remorse. She is relentless while feeding off of souls to awaken and strengthen her power. Despite her ancient existence, Haine is oftentimes spoiled and immature, automatically assuming she is entitled to overpower and consume any living person regardless of their morals or abilities. Haine’s childlike behavior can only be assumed to be a reflection of her appearance. She relies heavily on Four Arms to protect her the same time he is defeating Haine’s foes, and expects her firstborn to be the victor due to his overpowered capabilities in combat. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name, Hiruko (ヒルコ, 蛭子) translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name, Hiruko (ヒルコ, 蛭子) translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms to her when needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== Unlike many other people in the show, Haine is a character who lacks empathy or remorse. She is relentless while feeding off of souls to awaken and strengthen her power. Despite her ancient existence, Haine is oftentimes spoiled and immature, automatically assuming she is entitled to overpower and consume any living person regardless of their morals or abilities. Haine’s childlike behavior can only be assumed to be a reflection of her appearance. She relies heavily on Four Arms to protect her the same time he is defeating Haine’s foes, and expects her firstborn to be the victor due to his overpowered capabilities in combat. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal.

Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing. Haine then sees Mio is fighting two stray shadows commanded by Tokiko and is surprised by her betrayal. She tries to order the shadows that Tokiko isn't their master and to kill her, but the shadows doesn't listen, making her realize that Ushio had severed the connection to them. Angry, Haine merges all shadows into Shide and heads after Ushio. They reach the gymnasium, where Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. While burning, Haine with Asako jumps at the ceiling, but is shot by Shinpei and injured. Ushio then grabs her and prepares to erase Shiori, but Haine starts begging not to as she wants to take her and her family with her and live with them. Distracted for a moment, gives Shide a chance to grab and pull Ushio into the fire, while also shooting at Shinpei, but purposely missing vital organs, so he dies slowly and after Ushio. However, Ushio reveals to be a dummy and appears behind Shide, punching him and start erasing him. Haine scans the air and erases it from the gymnasium, putting out the fire and creating vacuum that causes the windows to burst, giving them chance to escape. Haine then asks Shide if he is fine and Shide confirms that he will be able to reconstruct, however, all other shadows had died from the fire. ===8th Loop=== Shinpei returns from a loop and Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconsciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. As Haine had previously copied during the first loops as Shiori, she transforms into Shinpei and calls Hizuru's group and Mio's group and informs them about Ushio's death and requests to meet with Hizuru's group at Torajima island, while with Mio as Alain's garden. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got to fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Shide eventually finds them, but Shinpei manages to reach Ushio and bring her memories back, who then kills dozens of shadows. Haine observes as a raven. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray and go outside. Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave and they head towards them. They manage to catch up to them the moment they broke through the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays to fight Shide while the barrier is closing and prevent him from reaching Shinpei. Shide and Haine later catch up to the group and Shide attacks Ushio, but she defends the group. Haine observes the fight and gives Shide information on how to dodge. She notices that when Shinpei's left eye is closed, she can sense Ryunosuke from him and realizes that he obtained the power to fight them himself. While dodging attacks, Haine sense Mio behind her and dodges again. Feeling the presence of all shadows and its printed objects, Haine then attacks a printed nailgun, but Sou then shoots her from the side. Haine realizes that the printed nailgun was a trap and that Sou uses Ginjiro's original nailgun. Mio then also attacks her and Haine is unable to warn Shide, and he ends up punched and killed by Ushio. However, another Shide then appears. Ushio rushes towards Hiruko and punches it, causing the black mud to fall off from Shide and Mio then stabs him in the head and kills him. Mio expects to disappear, but as she doesn't, she realizes that Haine must be still alive. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei and Ushio go into Haine's world, Tokoyo. Initially they are separated, but Shinpei finds Ushio, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. But soon seems to have fallen unconscious and Haine determines she cannot continue to fight. They make a plan to defeat Shide with Ushio turning into hacking shells for the shotgun. Eventually with the help from Haine, they manage to shoot Shide with the bullets and erase him. As Ushio attempts to erase Hiruko, she transfers them to Hitogashima. Haine realizes thats the human world from 300 years ago and sees her human self heading towards the Hiruko, who is a whale at that time. Shinpei stops Haine and tells her to not disturb the god and Haine runs away scared, thinking she saw a ghost. Ushio realizes that Hiruko wants Ushio to erase the whale, otherwise it will all repeat. As Ushio erases the whale, Hiruko also disappears. Haine then starts disappearing and thanks them all and asks Ryunosuke that if she is reborn if they can be friends again. As Ryunosuke agrees, they both disappear. == Etymology == *Her original name, Hiruko (ヒルコ, 蛭子) translates as "Leech Child". ==Trivia== *Her inability to walk is likely a reference to the shinto mythos regarding Ebisu/Hiruko, who was born without legs. *Her ability to regenerate from damage without absorbing data is likely due to the fact she is the Mother of the Shadows. So she only needs the initial data to regenerate endlessly.

She takes the appearance and the name of the first person she copied, Haine. As she has issues moving, Haine had copied [[Shiori Kobayakawa]] and transforms into her when she needs to explore the island. ==Appearance== Haine is a short girl with white hair and blood red eyes. She normally wears a red yukata with a flower blossom pattern and floral obi. Due to her injuries she is incapable of walking without help. In her natural form prior to meeting to Haine, she took on the appearance of a whale's shadow. Though its likely her actual shadow-form is much larger due as her awakening at end of the third loop consumed the whole island. ==Personality== Unlike many other people in the show, Haine is a character who lacks empathy or remorse. She is relentless while feeding off of souls to awaken and strengthen her power. Despite her ancient existence, Haine is oftentimes spoiled and immature, automatically assuming she is entitled to overpower and consume any living person regardless of their morals or abilities. Haine’s childlike behavior can only be assumed to be a reflection of her appearance. She relies heavily on Four Arms to protect her the same time he is defeating Haine’s foes, and expects her firstborn to be the victor due to his overpowered capabilities in combat. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== The parent shadow offers large amount of humans to Haine, who then appears in the sky and shines in red. As the shadow spread and consumes all humans on the island, Haine licks her lips for the good meal. [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] asks [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] to kill him, so he can return in time and as she does, he starts floating in a ghost-like form. He looks at Haine, who also turns and looks at him, but he then travels back in time. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth loop, Shadow Ushio replays the death of Ushio for Shinpei and Sou. At the end, Shiori grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him that they can interact, however, Shiori then turns to Haine, who tells Shinpei that she found him finally and won't be letting him go. However, Shadow Ushio ends the replay and they manage to escape Haine. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] takes Shinpei, Shadow Ushio and Sou in front of Haine. She explains that Haine is Hiruko, the god of the island and likes to be called and look like Haine, the first person she copied. Lately, she had issues walking and needed a body replacement. Haine then turns into Shiori, making Shinpei realize its Haine who killed Ushio. Tokiko calls Negoro, who brings two coffins for Haine. Tokiko explains that her family for generations have been bringing all the dead from the island for Haine to eat. Haine then eats the first body and prepares to eat Ushio's body, but Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who then takes Ushio's body. Annoyed, they stole her food, Haine transforms Negoro into a more wild and muscular form, but she ends up defeated by Ushio. Shinpei then gets close and points the nailgun at Haine, but the shadow parent shows up and cuts his fingers. He notes that Haine was about to eat Shinpei, but mustn't and Haine confirms, as she was annoyed they stole her food. He promises to take Ushio's body back and shows he has Mio, but tells Haine to not eat her as well as she is important hostage. As the shadow kills Sou and Tokiko, Haine takes Shinpei's eye, but the eye returns back to him. Since Ushio had became quite strong, she decides it would be a waste to kill her and decides to reprogram her so that she can help at the festival. She starts corroding her, but after Shinpei takes the poison and starts dying, Ushio manages to withstand the corrosion and turn it against Haine. Haine tells the shadow to kill Ushio, even if he needs to kill her as well. The shadow jumps in to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and takes Ushio and loops back with her. ===5th Loop=== At the Kobayakawas, Hizuru and the rest appear to kill Shiori, however, she is with the four-armed shadow, who then kills Hizuru. Shiori asks Shinpei if he remembers when she told him she found him and gave him the black mark on his hand. From then on, she always knew where he was. She has been chasing him ever since their eyes met at the summer festival. Haine then reveals she can loop as well. She shadow states that they don't need two observers and the true world will be seen by the one who survives. The shadow then attacks and kills Ginjiro. The shadow then surrounds Shinpei and is about to capture him, but Ushio cuts Shinpei's head. As the shadow is about to smash her, Shinpei's loop is activated and Ushio vanishes with Shinpei. Haine is fine with that, as this was just a greeting and knows that no matter how many times he loops, she will eventually catch up to him. ===6th Loop=== Haine loops back in Shiori. Confirming what time it was, and the last times of the loops, she realizes the starting point is getting later. The four armed shadow Shide, guesses its because Shinpei's power is waning. Shiori is fine that they keep letting Shinpei loop, as that will give him less and less time, until he reaches his limit, thus they should focus on killing him than keeping him alive. A hour and a bit later, they head for Shinpei at the elementary school. After killing the scouting Ginjiro, Shide takes his rifle and snipe kills Shinpei. ===7th Loop=== Haine and Shide arrive with more shadows at the school and find Shinpei outside. They think its a trap, but Shinpei states he just wants to fight fair and square. They send shadow Mio to kill him, but Ushio appears and they run with Ushio. Haine then orders the shadows to go and kill Shinpei, while Mio go and take out Ginjiro, who had started shooting at them. They encounter Hizuru in a corridor, who defends Shinpei and kills all shadows that come after him. Hizuru sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and takes the bullet, saving him, making Haine note that she knew she would do that as she too has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide is about to finish Hizuru, but Ginjiro shoots at them, making her wonder what Mio is doing.

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, well-endowed woman with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole on the left side of her mouth. She has a tall figure, and is usually seen wearing a black suit and glasses. Unless panicked, she mostly wears an unwavering, deadpan expression on her face. ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows.

However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside.

Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, attractive and well endowed woman with a developed and pronounced feminine body along with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole below on the left side of her lips. She has a tall and curvy figure which fits well into her choice of clothes which consists of round framed glasses, a black suit blazer jacket over a black tank top which accentuates her curvaceous waist and upper body and shows ample cleavage due to the low neckline especially when she takes off her jacket in Episode 5, Episode 11 & Episode 12, black long pants and black shoes. She usually wears an unwavering, deadpan serious expression on her face unless she’s in a fight or flight situation ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be quite intelligent and calculating, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine.

However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother.

As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, attractive and well endowed woman sporting a nicely developed and pronounced feminine body along with long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole below on the left side of her lips. She has a tall and curvy figure which fits well into her choice of clothes which consists of round framed glasses, a black suit blazer jacket over a black tank top which accentuates her curvaceous waist and upper body and shows ample cleavage due to the low neckline especially when she takes off her jacket in Episode 5, Episode 11 & Episode 12, black long pants and black shoes. She usually wears an unwavering, deadpan serious expression on her face unless she’s in a fight or flight situation ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be really intelligent can and calculate fast, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately.

However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

She is also known as '''Ryunosuke Nagumo''', author of the novel "Swampman". She has a dual personality and her twin brother '''[[Ryunosuke Minakata]]''' takes over when she is forced to fight shadows or do things she dislikes, like interviews. ==Appearance== Hizuru is a young, attractive, and well-endowed woman sporting a nicely developed and pronounced feminine body, including a bust that [[Tetsu Totsumura|Totsumura]] thinks is an H-cup, though Hizuru insists that it's a G-cup. She has long black hair and violet eyes. When switching to Ryunosuke, she keeps her hair up in a ponytail. She has a mole below on the left side of her lips. She has a tall and curvy figure which fits well into her choice of clothes which consists of round framed glasses, a black suit blazer jacket over a black tank top which accentuates her curvaceous waist and upper body and shows ample cleavage due to the low neckline especially when she takes off her jacket in Episode 5, Episode 11 & Episode 12, black long pants and black shoes. She usually wears an unwavering, deadpan serious expression on her face unless she’s in a fight or flight situation ==Personality== Hizuru is a very aloof and serious individual. She is relentless when going up against shadows, seeking nothing but revenge for the murder of her younger brother Ryunosuke Minakata. She is also shown to be really intelligent can and calculate fast, but also has a caring and kind side to her. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== Hizuru heads for Hitogashima and on the boat, [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] bumps into her and she slaps him. The next day Shinpei visits the shrine to get an exorcism. He goes into the woods and finds Hizuru bleeding. As she tries to warn him, shadow Mio appears and shoots her in the head. ===2nd Loop=== The second time Shinpei awakens on the boat, Hizuru asks him if he is okay, as he seemingly had a nightmare. He asks her if she was ever shot with a handgun, but that causes Hizuru to wonder even more if he is okay. ===3rd Loop=== On the third time, a bit more than a hour after arriving on Hitogashima, Hizuru hands upside down from a tree and records herself, explaining that she ate and that she is hanging upside down to think better. She then observes Shiori, commenting that its walking free among the people and plans on keep watching for the moment. At the summer festival, little before the ceremony, Hizuru finds shadow Mio trying to break Shinpei's leg on the stairs towards the shrine, and blows Mio's head with her shotgun. Mio retreats in her shadow and slides towards Hizuru, attempting to stab her from behind, but Hizuru dodges and shoots her shadow, which kills Mio. Hizuru then introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo and explains she came to save Shinpei Ajiro. Seeing a shadow, Hizuru then hides with Shinpei and they see [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] running up the hill, but Hizuru tells him to not go as the shadows are gathering there. Hizuru explains that shadow's true forms are their flat shadows on the ground and they don't like being stepped on. They eat by eating human data, but for the sense of taste, they need to consume the human, which leaves black stains. She has been killings many shadows since she came on the island, but their numbers keep increasing fast. Seeing a flash on the hill, Shinpei asks Hizuru for help and they head uphill. There, they witness a massacre and a big pile of corpses. Hizuru shoots Shadow Sou's hands and saves Mio from him. However, a shadow then produces another from itself which points a gun at Hizuru, making her realize its the parent shadow. Seeing a glimpse of the future, Hizuru sees she is shot in the head and dodges in the last moment and gets shot in the arm. The parent shadow then starts consuming the humans, offering them to their Mother, who then appears in the sky and Hizuru recognizes her as [[Heine]]. As everyone on the island starts to be consumed, Hizuru apologizes to Shinpei, stating she should have believed the message earlier. Shinpei tells her its not too late and asks her to shoot him in the head as he will return in time back to 22nd. Hizuru believes him and tells him that if he returns, to find her and tell her his name is Shinpei Ajiro. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei and gets consumed by the shadow. ===4th Loop=== On the fourth time, upon stepping on Hitogashima, Hizuru notices a man's shadow avoiding her foot. She overhears Mio calling Shinpei "Shin" and considers he may be Shinpei Ajiro. She notices a message about Ushio Kofune's funeral and recognizing the name she goes to the funeral. There she meets [[Masahito Karikiri]], who recognizes her, but quickly recalls why she couldn't stand him. She meets [[Alain Kofune]] and recalls how she used to spend time in the Kofune restaurant. She overhears Alain that Shinpei and Mio will be late and questions Alain about Shinpei. Realizing its Shinpei Ajiro, she decides to leave and avoid meeting him for now. Alain follows her and tells her that Ushio had marks on her neck similar to strangling and feels her death sounds similar to Ryunosuke Nogumo's. Hizuru returns to check the mark on Ushio's neck. As she leaves, he asks Alain if Ushio mentioned she met a doppleganger, but he didn't knew. Asako, an old friend of Hiruzu, recognizes her and explains that Ushio saved her daughter [[Shiori Kobayakawa]], however, Hizuru notices that Asako's shadow is avoiding her foot and that the whole Kobayakawa family are shadows. Hizuru meets with [[Ginjiro Nezu|Ginjiro]] and tells him about the Kobayakawas. As the shadows number increases, Ginjiro states there is one that can generate new shadows. Hizuru speculates that Shiori was being drowned by Shadow Shiori, and then erased Shiori and acted as she was the one being drowned, and later killed the rest of the Kobayakawas. Hizuru gives her second phone to Ginjiro and tells her to tell him if it rings. At the crematorium, she follows Alain in the bathroom and puts a "maintenance" on his toilet stall. A Shadow Alain comes and opens a stall, but finds Hizuru, who then smashes his shadow on the ground with a hammer and kills it. She receives a call from Ginjiro that Shinpei contacted him after solving her code and goes to meet him at the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve Hizuru's code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, which is something that only he knows or if a shadow copied Hizuru. Meeting Hizuru, Shinpei reveals his name is Shinpei Ajiro and wants an autograph from Hizuru. Hizuru tells him to correct her if she says something false. She then explains that he didn't knew who she was while on the boat and the only way a human to know her real name is if she had revealed it. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the Shadows and Hizuru believes him as her family was also killed by a shadow. He asks her to help him kill Mio's shadow and Hizuru agrees to help, but first needs to deal with Kobayakawas. Shinpei reveals he saw Shiori at the festival, so she must have escaped Hizuru. They go to the Kobayakawa's house, where Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke, her brother. He rings on the door and gets in as Hizuru knows Asako from childhood. Once inside, he opens his back and takes out a hammer and immediately attacks Asako, smashing her head. Tatsuo, Asako's husband, attacks him, but he smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attempts to attacking him, but seeing a glimpse of his death, Ryunosuke avoids and kills Asako's shadow. Shiori then appears behind him and as he turns, he smashes her shadow, but Shiori still lives and moves away. She then attacks Ryunosuke and starts choking him, stating he is dangerous as he knows how to kill shadows and wonders if he is even human as he moves really fast. Ryunosuke suggest that she scan him and learn herself, but then grabs chopsticks and stabs himself as Shiori's shadow is on his body. Shiori survives and runs on the third floor. Ryunosuke text Ginjiro and Shinpei that Asako and Tetsuo are dead, but Shinpei may be right for Shiori escaping and they should move to Plan B. He goes into her room and texts that she escaped from the window. Shiori then appears behind him, but Ryunosuke states its pointless as if she attempts to scan him, he knows that she will be unable to move for couple of seconds and will kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and runs thought the window. Ginjiro attacks her with a nail gun, but misses. Shinpei tackles her and manages to get her and Ginjiro then pins her with three nails, explaining that if pierced three times, the shadows can't move. As Ryunosuke comes, he comments they learned something new that the 3D body can't retreat into the shadow once they are pinned. He asks Shiori if she killed Ushio and Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks about their goal, but Shiori states the end is coming and she was trying to leave with her family. She proceeds to explain that she is reborn and is now the real Shiori, but Ryunosuke kills her, stating that if you talk too long with a shadow you will be misled. Ryunosuke introduces himself to Shinpei as Ryunosuke Minakata, Hizuru's brother. He explains he takes over when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislike, like interviews. He guesses that Shinpei had read Hizuru's novels, but Ginjiro reveals he is actually a freaky fan. Ryunosuke is surprised as Hizuru notes didn't mention that, but in that moment, he punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they are going off topic. The group exchanges phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue acting as he would, and be their observer until shadow Mio arrives. About 10 minutes before shadow Mio appears, Ginjiro tells Ryunosuke to not take everything that Shinpei told them as prey can be unpredictable. Soon, Shinpei opens the curtains, making them realize that Mio is there. Ginjiro shoots Mio and Shinpei kills her. Ryunosuke then enters his room and prepares to kill shadow Ushio, but Shinpei protects her, asking Hizuru to help her and explains that she saved him two times. Realizing her voice is the same as the message she got, Hizuru agrees. Outside, she pours water on her arm and Ushio's arm disappears. She explains that the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru shows her the message, where Ushio asks her for help and explains that she shadows kill everyone at the festival and only Shinpei Ajiro can stop them, however, Ushio has no memories of it. They realize that somehow the shadows knew they killed Shiori, but Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei due to him sticking with Ushio. While she means no harm right now, they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells her that Hizuru was killed by Mio on the next day at 3PM in the forest near the shrine and to be careful as a replacement may be send. Having a bad feeling about the sewers, Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and along with Ginjiro they go underground. They encounter and kill some baby-like shadows. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro reach a dead end with metal bars blocking the way, but realize that shadows travel underground through the many tunnels. Ryunosuke wonders if they should go out and look for another entrance, but Ginjiro doubts there is one, at least not for humans, as the path ahead is no longer a normal tunnel, but looks like natural cave. Ginjiro shares that his grandpa told him about the Hiruko cave, a giant cave under Hitogashima. Until halfway through the Meiji period, there used to be an entrance that would show up at Hitogashima port during low tides. However, during the Sino-Japanese war, the army sealed it up. Its said that the cave is where Hiruko settled in after washing ashore long ago. Ginjiro suggests they speak with Karikiri and they would also need metal cutting tools to proceed. Ryunosuke then hears something and they hide. They see Tetsu and Mio coming and Shiori eating the metal bars, allowing them to continue. Ryunosuke and Ginjiro proceed and reach the cave with sea anemone, which makes Ryunosuke realize they are all shadows. Shiori then appears and Ryunosuke explains that she must acted being killed, but escaped through the cracks and went underground. As Shiori reveals she knows Ryunosuke's name, he realizes its Heine who is using Shiori's memories. The shadow parent also appears and wants to know where the body with Mother's right eye is, but Shiori states she read Ryunosuke and Hizuru's mind, but they don't know. Ginjiro states they should run as they are the ones being hunted and that this isn't a shadow of a human. Shiori warns the shadow that Ryunosuke's shifted, about two seconds ahead. The shadow then shoots at Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro jumps in and takes the bullet. He then proceeds shooting at Ryunosuke, who manages to escape, but also gets shot. Looking at the blood, the shadow states its dark, which means he hit the liver and Ryunosuke won't have much to live. Ryunosuke is heavily injured and loses consciousness, so he switches to Hizuru. Tetsu then appears and Hizuru asks him about Mio, but he explains a monster took her. Hizuru wonders about his gun, but Tetsu guesses he dropped it when he tried to shoot the baby monsters, but tripped and then ran. Hizuru tells him that was the right decision and asks him to carry her deeper in the cave as she no longer can walk on her own. As they go deeper, they reach Heine and Hizuru shoots the head of the shadow parent, freeing Shinpei. She knows she has one more shot and shoots at Shinpei, but the shadow protects him with a shield and shoots and kills Hizuru. However, that was enough for Shinpei to be able to take his poison and kills himself. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. They gather at the Kobatakawas and Hizuru turns into Ryunosuke and enters to kill them. However, moments later, Ryunosuke is throw out of the window. He tells the rest to run as this isn't the 22nd they know, but his head is then smashed by the four-armed shadow. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei gathers them at the elementary school, preparing to fight Heine and Shide as they come. However, he ends up killed by a sniper rifle. ===7th Loop=== Back at the elementary school, Shinpei reveals that he can loop one more time as the time limit he can return to starts to move faster with each of his deaths. Ginjiro wonders how they found him and Hizuru guesses they scanned her and learned what he likes to do, while in the fourth loop as she was heavily injured and likely they had fought Shide. Shinpei waits for Heine and Shide outside the school and as they come, he runs with Ushio towards the inside. He passes Ryunosuke, who waits in the corridor and Ryunosuke proceeds to kill any shadow that follows Shinpei. Ryunosuke was about to kill Asako's shadow, but she dodged in the last moment. He then sees that Shide will shoot Shinpei and protects Shinpei with his body, taking the shot. As Heine notes that she knew Hizuru would take the shot, Ryunosuke realizes that she also has the sight and is able to see two seconds into the future. Shide prepares to finish off Ryunosuke, but Ginjiro shoots at Shide, giving Ryunosuke chance to escape. Later, Heine and Shide escape and Ryunosuke leaves a message to Hizuru, documenting what happened and that they found a human inside Shide. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido getting chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Ushio speaks with Hizuru and wonders why Heine had changed, as in Hizuru's memory, she looked like a human child. Ushio believes she was born from the part that split from Heine on the day Ryunosuke died and fears that she is like Heine, she one day may go crazy like her. Hizuru assures her that if such day comes, she will kill Ushio. The next day, the group splits into two teams and decide to take out shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. They are barely able to finds shadows and guess the shadows are afraid for Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. Going on Torajima, Ryunosuke immediately recognizes Shinpei as Haine. Masahito attempts to attack Ryunosuke from behind, but he dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. As they fight, Ryunosuke manages to smash Shide's head twice, but he gets protected by his mud armor. Feeling that Hizuru's body is at its limits, he wants to escape, but Hizuru takes over and refuses to escape. She explains that if Shinpei is dead, they need to fight or they will all die tomorrow. She then shares a plan with Ryunosuke, while telling him he doesn't need to defeat the armor, but Masahito. Ryunosuke beats up Shide, but he keeps regenerating. Haine wishes to know why Hizuru returned, and recognizing she is displaying Shinpei's personality, Hizuru decides to talk to buy some time. Hizuru explains that she returned for curiosity from the message she got, but saw an opportunity to redeem herself as she blames herself for the death of her brother. Hizuru then tells Haine that Shide has different plans than hers, since in the third loop he said this was his ending, but Shide denies it, stating Hizuru just wants to confuse her. They proceed fighting and knowing that Shide's armor is "nobody", then its an empty void that Ryunosuke can invade. She touches Shide's head and sends Ryunosuke, who then takes over of Shide's armor and creates a shadow of himself. With Masahito exposed, Tokiko then join the fight. As things don't go well, Ginjiro and Tetsu help Tokiko get away, who then informs Shinpei and he restarts the loop. ===9th Loop=== With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Hizuru is barely alive and seeing that, Shinpei takes Tetsu's gun and wants to loop back. Hizuru tells him its too late and Mio stops him, telling him he should know his loop powers are at its limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru pulls Shinpei and tells him that Haine is still a child. Her original personality is of a lonely kid, who likes to be spoiled. However, Shide's goal is different and Hizuru suspects that Haine is being used by him. Hizuru asks Shinpei to save Haine and he agrees. Before she dies, Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke into Shinpei, telling Shinpei that he entrust him her brother. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist, and as a result, Ryunosuke doesn't die. At the boat to Hitogashima, Shinpei bumps into her and recognizes her as Nagumo Ryunosuke, which surprises her. On July 24th, Shinpei gets her to sign him a copy of his book and explains he knows her identity from his dream and that Ushio also had a similar dream. Hizuru then guesses its a memory from a parallel world. Ryunosuke arrives with his family, and his daughter Haine thanks Hizuru for her birthday present. Ryunosuke reveals that Hizuru is writing a new novel and that despite her act, she is quite happy to meet a fan. Shinpei gets excited, but Hizuru refuses to talk about her new novel, and is instead interested in hearing more about Shinpei's story. That evening at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating her ideas are coming one after another thanks to the inspiration from Shinpei's story. == Etymology == * Hizuru's surname '''Minakata''' means "south/southern/southward/southwardly" (南方).

He is soft-spoken and easy to talk to, but his long stories are his weak point. ==Appearance== Masahito is an young, very tall adult man with medium long light brown hair. He wears glasses and is usually in his priest uniform. ==Personality== ==Plot== Masahito performs the funeral of [[Ushio Kofune]] and calls [[Shinpei Ajiro]] to help with the procession. === 4th Loop === On the fourth July 22nd, at the funeral, Masahito recognizes [[Hizuru Minakata]], even though its been fourteen years. She asks him if Ushio is from the Kofune restaurant and he confirms. He wonders why she came back, but as she was replying, he interrupts her, guessing she studied for being a teacher or doctor. Hizuru gets annoyed and tells him she remembered why she couldn't stand him. Masahito then calls [[Alain Kofune|Alain]] wanting to see if he will recognize Hizuru, but Hizuru reveals her name. At the funeral crematorium, Shinpei asks him if he knows about the shadow sickness and Masahito confirms as it was his grandfather who named it. As he describes the woman on the boat, Masahito guesses he is talking about Hizuru. === 7th Loop === Shinpei goes to speak with Masahito at the shrine. They talk about video games and then Shinpei tells him about the Swamp Man novel, where the protagonist gets replaced by a perfect copy and no one notices. He then retells the Hiruko legend and how the shadow sickness started with the whale that washed ashore, turning to a girl and ate it. Masahito laughs at Shinpei for thinking the shadows are real, but Shinpei throws pictures at him, telling him that he very well knows its true as Masahito was there. Masahito sees a 70 years old picture with him on it, and a 40 years old picture with him, Haine and their child. Shinpei wonders if he should call him Shidehiko Hishigata and that he is a human-shadow hybrid. Masahito then explains that during the famine in 1732, they turned hundred of the islanders into shadows and that way they needed less food to survive, which he believes saved the island. Ushio gets angry and asks him about Shinpei's parents. Masahito then explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public, so he had to kill them, but wonders if they would have been happier if he made them shadows. Masahito notes that Shinpei probably wonders why his arm isn't injured. Ushio unable to take it anymore, shows up and kills Masahito. Moments later, another Masahito who turns into [[Shide]] comes out and kills both Ushio and Shinpei. === 8th Loop === Haine contacts Hizuru and Mio, while having copied Shinpei, and arranges a meeting with them at different locations. She sends one Masahito at Alain's garden, while another takes with her. At Torajima, Hizuru as Ryunosuke arrives, but recognizes Haine right away. Masahito comes and attacks Ryunosuke, but he easily dodges. Haine explains that she was tormented by eating her friend's brother and expelled part of her self and his data, but there was a slight incident and coordinates in time shifted, so Ryunosuke can control Hizuru from 2 seconds in the future. However, she can see his movements and relay that information to Shide, which removes Ryunosuke's advantage. Masahito reveals a black mud, stating its consist of former shadows and once it comes with contact of his will, it transforms. He turns to Shide and fight Hizuru, but because of the black mud, she can't hurt him. Ryunosuke is looking for a way to escape, but Hizuru refuses and states she has a plan on taking Shide. As they fight, Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, Ryunosuke is then able to take control on part of it and creates his own shadow. With half of his armor got, Masahito can no longer maintain his Shide form. Meanwhile, Shinpei and shadow Mio face the other Masahito, who informs them that they are too late and Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. He suggest Mio to kill Shinpei, so that he restarts the loop, but Mio instead cuts Masahito's head, who then states they will meet in the next loop. Shinpei then receives information about the fight with Hizuru and decides to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === With the loop restarted, Shide got the fight Hizuru again, but this time knew all of her tricks and easily defeated and stabbed her in the chest with the spear. When Shinpei comes, feeling Ushio from his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Haine asks Masahito if during the search earlier, there was a stray that ignored her call, since its been two hours since she lost Shinpei's location. Her handprint is still on Shinpei, but he can isolate his presence, just like Masahito while in the mud. Masahito wonders if they gave too many hints to Shinpei and since most stray's are looking for Ushio, if they decide to invade Hiruko Cave, they can easily reach Haine. However, Haine doubts they will attempt that unless they are fully prepared. Haine suspects that Shinpei is hiding as maybe the Ushio that's with Shinpei is the only one who can locate the Ushio in the sea and are trying to get to her before Haine. Figuring that Shide has no idea from where Shinpei came, Shinpei loops back. === 10th Loop === Haine realizes that Shinpei looped back and is located in the Hiruko cave and they head towards him with Masahito. They reach them at the black barrier, but Ginjiro stays behind to stop them while the barrier closes. Shide and Haine later still manage to catch up to Shinpei.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes he is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes she is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants she to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes she is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants her to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-french and half-japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes she is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants her to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-French and half-Japanese.

She lost her life in a maritime accident while trying to save Shiori from drowning in the sea. She loves her childhood friend Shinpei, but has yet to express her feelings for him. ==Appearance== Ushio is a young woman with fair skin and a curvy athletic build. She has long blond hair that reaches down to her waist and blue eyes. Her eyebrows and eyelashes are noticeably blonde as well. One of Ushio's signature outfits is a dark navy blue one-piece racerback swimsuit with white shoulder straps and no footwear. Ushio also wears an oyster shell pendant around her neck. ==Personality== Ushio is a very open-minded and enthusiastic person, but also naive often she is not aware of the danger she is in. She has a close relationship to Shinpei, and has feelings for him, but she doesn't openly admit her love for Shinpei. ==History== On July 17th, while Ushio and Mio shop at Kobe Mart, Shiori shares that she was followed by a look-alike. Ushio believes this was just a creep and tells her to report it to Tetsu Totsumura, however Shiori is disappointed that they don't take her seriously and states that he won't be able to do anything. On 18th, Ushio helps with cleaning the beach. She sees a flash and as she turns, she sees her shadow. She tries to follow her, but loses her. She goes to Shiori and tells her that she believes her. At home, Mio thinks that Shinpei will come this year, but Ushio states she doesn't care and can stay in Tokyo forever, however, Mio then teases her that she doesn't mean it as she loves him. Ushio then heads to take a bath, but finds Shadow Ushio in it. Ushio tries to call Mio, but Shadow Ushio stops her. She explains that she is Ushio Kofune and came back to her house, but hid as she saw Ushio with Mio. The two of them then think the other is the Shadow, but then realizes that if Shadows are real, then Shiori's Shadow is somewhere on the island. They recall that Shiori mentioned she saw her Shadow for the first time on Mount Takanosu and agree to investigate it. The two head in the mountain, but are unable to find anything. Shadow Ushio then sees a sign, stating its dangerous ahead and they decide to proceed. They reach the old Hishigata family clinic, which had rumours to be haunted, making everyone avoids it. Shadow Ushio has a weird feeling of being there before. They hear some noise and see a Shadow holding a crow. The Shadow then flashes and copies Ushio. The third Ushio attacks them and pins Shadow Ushio to a tree. Ushio attempts to attack the third Ushio, but her attacks has no effect. She ends up hitting her shadow by accident, which hurts the third Ushio, who then kicks Ushio away. Third Ushio then stabs Shadow's Ushio shadow, injuring her leg. At first Shadow Ushio is surprised, but then figures that a Shadow's weakness is their flat shadow, which would mean she isn't a human. Shadow Ushio then uses her hair to cut third Ushio's arm and free herself. As third Ushio runs, Shadow Ushio follows her realizing that her real body is the shadow and the projected body is a weapon to protect the real body. She catches up to third Ushio and slashes her shadow, killing her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio that she is cool. Shadow Ushio then flashes and updates her data, copying her data on her healthy foot and heals her own foot. Shadow Ushio explains that she will eventually disappear, but if she kills the original, she will become the original. Her instincts tell her to kill Ushio, and normally she would have done it by now. Ushio realizes why its said that you will die if you see your Shadow and that Shiori is in danger. On 21st, at the beach, Shadow Ushio copies Ushio in her swimsuit. Ushio asks Shadow Ushio if she can become her shell necklace and Shadow Ushio turns into it. Ushio then puts on the necklace and takes the real one to her bag. While distracted by Akari, Shiori ended in the water and is drowning. Shadow Ushio tells Ushio that she senses a Shadow under the water. Mio leaves Akari to Tokiko and wants to go and help her with Sou, but Ushio stops them and asks them to leave it to her. Ushio jumps in the water and swims to Shiori, who is being dragged deeper underwater by Shadow Shiori. Shadow Ushio turns back to her Ushio form and slashes Shadow Shiori's arm. She grabs Shiori and heads to the surface, but Shadow Shiori's arm is still on her and surrounds them with shadow arms, immobilizing them. Ushio pulls Shadow Shiori out of them, but Shadow Shiori starts strangling her. Ushio tells Shadow Ushio to ignore her and continue to save Shiori. Moments later, Shadow Shiori catches up to Shadow Ushio, wanting them to stop and Shadow Ushio sees Ushio's body falling down towards the bottom. Shadow Ushio slashes Shadow Shiori, but Shiori manages to grab her and realizes that Shadow Ushio is faulty. She attempts to fix her, but as she senses that Mio and Sou are coming, she releases Shadow Ushio who starts falling towards the bottom, erases Shiori and then acts unconscious for Mio and Sou to save her. ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Shinpei finds Ushio at the beach. He tells her she died, but Ushio has no memories and only remembers some pain, and believes she is human. Ushio reveals she wanted to tell him something if he ever came back and then tells him she loves him. He asks her what she wants. Looking at the fireworks, Ushio wonders if its 24th already and as Shinpei confirms, she states she wanted to go to the festival with him. As she goes to the festival, he goes after her and tells her to stay hidden until the festival is over as everyone believe she is dead and can't meet her friends. Annoyed, she punches him, warning him that she will punch him if he keeps saying nonsense. Mio calls Shinpei and seeing its Mio, Ushio takes the phone and greets her, but Shinpei tells Mio its him. Shinpei goes to his friends at the shrine and unable to sit still, Ushio heads too. She uses a mask to disguise her and sees how [[Sou Hishigata]] gets turned down by Mio and tries to comfort him, but everyone sees through her disguise. Shadow Shinpei appears and captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. Shadow Parent attempts to consume Shinpei, but Ushio comes and punches him, giving time for Hizuru to kill Shinpei and send him back in time. ===4th Loop=== Ushio appears behind Shinpei while he is making curry, which surprises him and makes him comment that she shouldn't appear until the festival. Ushio tells him that shadow-like monsters ate everyone at the festival and if he too was there. As Mio appears, Ushio hides and soon receive a note from Shinpei to get to his room. There she eagerly awaits for Shinpei's curry and enjoys it while eating it. She explains she woke up at the Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw as they now see her as a monster. The two agree to work together and stop the shadows. Mio comes to pick up the plates and almost sees her. Mio then leaves, but returns few seconds later and again almost sees Ushio. However, this ends up being Shadow Mio, who attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ushio protects him with her body, taking the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds Ushio. Mio asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei and Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro and Shinpei kill her. Ryunosuke comes to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and asks for her help. Ushio wonders if the real Mio is okay and Ryunosuke confirms. As her voice is the same as the one from her message, Hizuru decides to save her. Once outside, Hizuru pours water on Ushio's arm, which then disappears. Hizuru explains the wound was a projection of the damage done to her main body. Hizuru then shows the message from Ushio, that asks her for help and that Shinpei is the only one who can stop the shadows, but Ushio has no memories of it. Hizuru decides to stop working with Shinpei as he is with Ushio and they don't know when she will be "fixed" and turn against them. The next day, Shinpei meets with Sou. They go to the beach, where Sou wants to tell him something related to Ushio's death. Ushio then shows up behind him and guesses its the strangle marks, which makes it look like she was murdered. Sou confirms, but then sees Ushio and ends in a shock. After they tell him everything, Sou apologizes for not being able to save Ushio and wants her to punch him. Ushio then kicks him and tells him to get up as they rely on him. Shinpei gives her phone. Ushio sees the password had changed, but her fingerprint unlocks it. She then find a video from the morning when Ushio died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nail gun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. Ushio realizes that she still haven't recovered from the damage she took from Mio, even though she printed a new arm. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. Tokiko then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Heine is Hiruko, the god of the island. They bring out Ushio's real body to feed Heine with it. The moment she eats another body and turns to eat Ushio's, Shinpei asks Ushio to print him the nailgun. With it, he frees Ushio, who jumps in and takes Ushio's body. Shadow Ushio then scans Ushio's body, making her able to regenerate her arm. Heine sends a shadow Negoro to fight them, but Ushio kills her. The shadow parent appears and cuts Shinpei's fingers, and holds Mio as hostage. He then kills Sou and Tokiko. Heine decides to reprogram Ushio and starts corroding her. Hizuru comes and manages to free Shinpei, but she also dies. Shinpei then drinks a poison he had on him to kill himself. Ushio starts to resist the corrosion and even turns is against Heine, who then asks the shadow to kill Ushio, but Shinpei dies and loops both of them before they kill Ushio. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but soon realize its just Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. Soon they end up at the old Hishigata clinic, where Hizuru meets her new friend Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of everyone and manages to motivate them to fight alongside him, however, Shide then kills Shinpei with a rifle, ending the loop. ===7th Loop=== Ushio and Mio find Shinpei and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Ushio senses a shadow and they follow to the morgue in the basement, but see Ushio's real body is gone. They continue a path leading to Hiruko Cave, but on the way, they see Seido chocked by his wife, Chitose. Ushio then stops her and severs her connection with Heine. After Seido learns he is immune and they can't copy him, he decides to tell them everything and that Shide is Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. At night, Ushio sees that Ginjiro tries to sneak out and as he explains he needs to go to his house, she decides to join him. There, he asks her to stay out, but she enters as she senses a shadow. Ginjiro then reveals its his wife, Kaoru, who was erased by a shadow two months ago, but he managed to pin her. Ushio offers to hack her, but Ginjiro refuses, as she still would be a shadow and wishes to put a closure and then kills Kaoru's shadow. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaurant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei wishes to go alone, but as the shadows can capture him, Ushio decides to join him. They make a plan that if he needs help, he will use his gun. He will shoot twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow and on the third gunshot they should enter. When he meets Masahito, Shinpei reveals the legend and shows Masahito two pictures, telling him he is Shidehiko Hishigata. Masahito doesn't deny it and explains that when Haine came, there was a famine, but he made her turn 100 of the islanders into shadows. As they don't need food, that left the other fisherman be able to catch more. Hearing that Masahito believes he saved the island, Ushio is angry and questions him about Shinpei's parents, but he explains they found the Hiruko cave and wanted to go public. He then wonders if they would have been more happy if he turned them into shadows. Shinpei feels something isn't right, but Ushio is too angry and comes out and slashes and kills Masahito. She calls the rest to inform them, but in that moment another Masahito comes and stabs her shadow with a spear and then slashes her, killing her. Masahito then turns into Shide and kills Shinpei as well. ===9th Loop=== Seeing the shell necklace, Shadow Mio explains that Ushio's memories are stored inside, however its protected and only Ushio can read them. Shinpei then figures out that Ushio without memories will show up at the festival and that they can restore her memories with the necklace. He explains the rest that Ushio is drifting in the sea after her fight with Haine, when she tried to save Shiori and it will heal on the day of the festival. The necklace also moves towards Ushio and the group forms a plan. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but Mio stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the hand print doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severely injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, explaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. ===11th Loop=== At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. As a result, Ushio doesn't die and Shinpei doesn't live with her as kids. Having a bad dream of Shinpei disappearing, she calls Shinpei and asks him to visit her during the summer festival. When Shinpei comes, he acts casual in front of him, but earlier had been excited and telling everyone that she is sure he will come. Ushio has been cleaning the beach, but had lost her pendant and has spend the last two days looking for it. As she looks for it again, Shinpei comes and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo and Ushio reveals why she called him. Shinpei then finds her pendant and puts it back on her neck. At the festival, she calls Shinpei asking him where he is and telling him to buy her takoyaki. She hears about Sou and explains that she knows he likes Mio and that he confessed last year, but she turned him down. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then start and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Ushio''' means "tide, ebb, opportunity" (潮). * Ushio's surname '''Kofune''' means "boat, small craft" (小舟). ==Trivia== *She is half-French and half-Japanese.

She is intelligent and has the top grades in her grade, but she is physically weak and not good at sports. She and [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] have known each other since childhood and are classmates at the same high school. ==Appearance== Tokiko is a young girl with a long red hair braided in a tail. ==Personality== ==Plot== ===3rd Loop=== Tokiko joins [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]], [[Mio Kofune|Mio]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro|Shinpei]] to visit the Summer Festival with them. Per Sou's request, she helps Mio to dress in yukata and they go pick up Shinpei. At the festival, Mio wonders what Sou and Shinpei are talking and panicking, Sou states they are discussing what they like more, butts or boobs, which makes Mio give Shinpei a strange look. Shinpei tries to deny it, but Tokiko states that's interesting conversation and reveals that Shinpei came in the bathroom while Mio was taking a bath, but Shinpei states he didn't see anything. Tokiko then wonders what Shinpei feels about Mio and he reveals he cares for her as a family. Mio then stops Tokiko from asking any other questions. Shinpei then sees something and runs and leaves the group. After the fireworks, Mio calls Shinpei and he rejoins them. They watch the ceremony and after it, Sou wants to confess to Mio. Tokiko tells Shinpei about it, but states it won't go well as Mio already loves someone else, but refuses to tell Shinpei who that is. After Sou confesses and Mio states he just wants to be friends, [[Ushio Kofune|Ushio]] appears. Mio thinks she is a shadow and warns Shinpei, but Shinpei reveals that he himself is a shadow. Other shadows appear and they start killing people. The real Shinpei appears and sees the blood. Tokiko starts crying and apologizes, saying that this wasn't why she dirtied her hands, but then she gets killed by a shadow. ===4th Loop=== Mio and Tokiko are hiding from the rain. Tokiko wonders if Mio will be going to the festival tomorrow, but Mio explains she doesn't have a yukata. Tokiko states she will gladly lend her one. Tokiko then wants a favor from Mio and asks her to stay with her tomorrow. A man then shows up, but seeing he isn't local, Tokiko wonders who he is. The man introduces himself as Miura from Wakayama's northern station and asks them if they knew the Kobayakawas. Deep into the underground cave, Tokiko appears with two baby-like shadows and tells Shinpei's group to not do anything stupid or Ushio will die. Tokiko states she is there to retrieve a defective product and is glad that they brought Ushio. As she gets closer, Shinpei shoots at her shadow, pinning her multiple times with the nails, but Tokiko just laughs. Ushio tells Shinpei that Tokiko isn't a shadow. Tokiko wonders if Shinpei can kill humans and wants them to chat. Shinpei states they surrender and the shadows capture Ushio. Shinpei realizes that since they still haven't killed them, they won't harm Ushio for the moment and wonders if Tokiko will take them to her father. Sou wonders if she follows they father orders. Tokiko tells him its natural that he doesn't know anything, as he wasn't chosen by their father, but there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. Tokiko asks them to leave their stuff and follow her and she will lead them to Hiruko. Getting closer, Shinpei and the rest hear a rumble, and Tokiko explains its Hiruko's stomach. Tokiko states she accepted all and won't ask for forgiveness, but asks Shinpei to not let Mio know what he will see and learn. Tokiko then takes them to a large shadow that reaches the ceiling, and at its base is Heine, who states its 9 o'clock and time to eat. Tokiko explains that Hiruko like to be called Heine and look like her, who is the first person she copied. Recently she had troubles walking and needed a new body, so she took Shiori. She explains that her family have been serving the shadows for generations and they bring the dead to her for she to eat them. As they bring Ushio's body, Tokiko states Ushio's death was a surprise to her and never expected she to team up with her own shadow in order to save Shiori. Sou can't accept this and yells at Tokiko, asking her where their father is. Tokiko yells back that its because he is like this that she had to carry everything herself. She had to do all of this, because if Heine dies, their mother would die too. Their mother wasn't cured and their father asked Heine to turn her into a Shadow, so she can live. When Shinpei and Ushio fight back, Tokiko states they can't win against the shadows. Ushio tells her that the Tokiko she knows won't stand for this and that Heine is using her to fill her belly. Soon, the shadow parent shows up and brings Mio as hostage. Tokiko is angry as they promised to not touch Mio. The shadow finds this foolish as all the humans on the island would be dying tomorrow at the festival. Tokiko wonders what he means as tomorrow Heine was supposed to have her final meal and heal her body, and then bring her mother back. The shadow shoots at Tokiko, but Sou gets in front and takes the bullet. The shadow is surprised, but states that their father already knows the tomorrow's plan, and then proceeds and shoots Tokiko. ===6th Loop=== Tokiko along Shinpei's friends is called to the elementary school. There Ushio shows them her memory of the previous loops. Shinpei asks them to help him and fight the shadows. Tokiko states they have no idea how many shadows are on the island and they don't really stand a chance, especially if Heine is looping back as well. However, she had already died in the other loops, so she decides to trust Shinpei and fight. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei explains to everyone else that he can only loop one more time as the time limit for the loop moves faster after each death. When Heine and Shide come with shadows and they case Shinpei and Ushio, Heine orders shadow Mio to take out Ginjiro, however, Mio, Sou and Tokiko remain to protect him and fight Mio. Tokiko summons two baby-like shadows, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who push Mio away. When Heine notices the stray shadows, she orders them they to kill Tokiko as she isn't their master, however the shadows refuse to listen to Heine as their connection with Heine had been severed previously by Ushio. Eventually they manage to defeat Mio and pin her with the nailgun and later ask Ushio to turn her one of them. After making Shadow Mio their ally, Shinpei questions her and they learn that all shadows except Heine, can give "birth" to only one shadow and that shadow cannot give "birth". Shinpei then decides they go speak with Seido Hishigata as he seems to know Heine's plan. However, reaching the hospital, they see all items and furniture being erased. Tokiko remains in the car with Ginjiro and Mio. She had let Shadow Mio copy her and join the group. Tokiko also wanted Shadow Mio to learn everything about her and her feelings. As Shinpei wants to go to speak with Masahito alone and confirm if he is Shide, the group initially refuses, but they accept when Ushio decides to go with him. They agree on a signal for help being the third gunshot. Shinpei plans on shooting twice at first to confirm if Masahito is a shadow or human. While waiting outside the shrine, they hear a third gunshot. Hizuru, Ginjiro and Tokiko using the stray shadows, quickly try entering, but they see Shinpei flying out of the shrine and being pinned to a tree by a spear thrown by Shide. ===8th Loop=== Hizuru receives a call from Shinpei, telling her that Ushio is dead and wants them to regroup at Torajima. Reaching Torajima, Hizuru's group is suspicious as if Ushio is dead, so could be Shinpei and this can be Haine's trap. Hizuru tells Ginjiro to stay at the sniper position, but he tells her he can only cover southern part of the island. Hizuru explains that if Shinpei is a shadow, she will lure him there and Tokiko can use the shadows to strike. When Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor, she no longer can fight and Tokiko comes with the two shadows and helps her fight Shide. However, things don't go well and Tokiko barely escape thanks to Ginjiro and Tetsu. She manages to follow Shadow Mio's trace and finds Shinpei with her. As Tokiko is fatally injured, before she dies, she tells Shinpei to save Ryunosuke and Hizuru on Torajima. Shadow Mio then scan her memories and show them to Shinpei, who decides to restart the loop. ===9th Loop=== Knowing how Hizuru would fight, Shide easily defeats her. Tokiko attacks with the a stray shadow, but Shide easily kills the shadow. Shinpei then comes and Haine decides to leave. ===10th Loop=== Shinpei loops back with Ushio, while the group is in Tokiko's stray shadow inside the Hiruko Cave. They proceed towards Hiruko's main body, but on their way, they face a shadow who shoot out teeth and attempts to pin the stray with them. Tokiko breaks part of the cave to create a wall from the debris and decides to stay and fight the shadow with her stray, while the group proceeds towards Hiruko. == Etymology == * The name '''Tokiko''' means "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_ibis crested ibis]" (朱鷺) ('''toki''') and "child" (子) ('''ko'''). ** Part of the name '''Toki''' can also mean "vermilion red" (朱) ('''to''') and "heron" (鷺) ('''ki''') separately. * Tokiko's surname '''Hishigata''' means "Rhombus, diamond shape" (菱形).

Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine|Haine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with their memories, allowing the shadow to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, to actually sustain themselves requires them to consume the subject completely, which is done with a flash and leaves black stains behind, rather than just scanning them. In order to consume a living subject, that subject generally has to be dead, though Heine can consume people directly by touching them with a black mud which is created through a specific ritual. Objects can be scanned and consumed from a distance, but that exact distance is unknown and generally only within a few feet. Scanning can usually be done at a bigger distance than consuming. Fluids can be scanned and consumed so long as they are within some kind of container. That container doesn't need to be perfectly air tight. How big of an opening there can be is unknown. The shadows are capable of two types of copying: transformation and childbirth. When transforming, they replicate something with their body. While with childbirth, they split off part of their body to create a new shadow. Heine can give childbirth many times, but the children she makes can only give birth to one human shadow, and those grand-children cannot give birth, however, all shadows can transform repeatedly. When a shadow is created from a person during childbirth, they human needs to be dead within a week or the shadows will turn into mud and vanish. Shadows can also scan and recreate objects. These objects can only exist within 50 meters of the shadow that spawned them. Shadows have a limited amount of data they can hold, though this limit is much greater for Heine. Once at this limit, they must erase the data of existing objects to make room for more if they wish to store that data. Complex machinery generally can't function without the original being erased, however, if the original is erased and the data of it is brought back in time, both can function at the same time. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves. The next day, in the forest near the shrine, Shadow Mio shoots and injures [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]]. Real [[Mio Kofune]] and [[Shinpei Ajiro]] hear the gunshot and follow it and find Hizuru. Mio heads to look for help, while Hizuru attempts to warn Shinpei, but Shadow Mio shoots her in the head. Shadow Mio had captured Mio and then kills both Mio and Shinpei. '''Shadow Tetsu Totsumura''': Tetsu enters the dinner and asks for the usual. Mio takes his order, but wonders why he didn't came this morning for breakfast. Tetsu explains that all Kobayakawa family had vanished. In the morning, their Koba Mart wasn't open, so their neighbour, Shiomi's wife, peeked in their house and it was all empty. Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. |-| 2nd Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune & Tetsu Totsumura''': [[Tetsu Totsumura]] sees Shadow Mio standing in front of Kofune's house. Shadow Mio then kills him, stabbing him multiple times with a kitchen knife. She then flashes and creates another Shadow, which transforms into Tetsu. Shadow Tetsu touches the dead Tetsu, causing another flash and disentigrading his body. Shadow Mio informs Shadow Tetsu that he is now Tetsu Totsumura, the police officer. Assuming his role, Mio then asks him to give her his gun, causing Tetsu to realize she still haven't killed the real Mio and taken her place. Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital. Taking the gun, Shadow Mio comments that she can't go in and kill her now or everyone will hear the gunshot and will be just scouting for today. In that moment, Shinpei's phone vibrates, Mio hears it, find Shinpei and stabs him in the neck. As he bleeds out, Tetsu wonders if Mio will copy him, but she starts to explain that Shinpei is already something, but he isn't able to hear the rest. |-| 3rd Loop = '''Shadow [[Shiori Kobayakawa]]''': Shinpei and Shiomi enter the Kobayakawas house as their shop is closed. Shinpei goes on the second floor, where he encounters Shadow Shiori who asks him why he asked her yesterday if she had seem a girl like her. She wonders why is he starring at her and if there is something wrong with her. Shinpei then realizes that Shiori is a shadow and she was at the funeral. As Shiori creates a shadow, he realizes that the flash at the funeral already afflicted with him a shadow sickness. Shiomi then comes and Shiori decides to leave. '''Shadow [[Ushio Kofune]]''': ''Check main article [[Ushio Kofune]].'' '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At the stairs towards the shrine, Shadow Mio stands and kills people. She sees Shinpei coming and grabs him and throws him, stating that she heard he recorded her, but that wouldn't be possible, unless he knew she was coming. Mio asks if the traitor told him, but as the plan is almost complete, she can't let any interference. Shadow Shinpei appears and obtains Shinpei's current memories. Mio then tries to kill Shinpei, but shadow Shinpei stops her, stating they need to think a bit more and if they kill him, he can just loop again. Shadow Shinpei tells Mio to take his phone and to send others to get Ushio. Shinpei wishes to stop him, but Mio breaks his arm, stating he is struggling pointlessly as Mother will soon wake up. As Shinpei keeps struggling, Mio wonders if she should break his leg too, but in that moment, Hizuru appears and shoots her in the head. Mio retreats in her shadow and regenerates. In her shadow she slides behind Hizuru and comes out attempting to stab Hizuru, however, Hizuru dodges and points the gun at Mio's shadow on the ground and shoots it. Mio is surprised she managed to dodge that and then dies from the gunshot. '''Shadow Shinpei Ajiro''': At the stairs towards the shrine, after Shadow Mio captures Shinpei, shadow Shinpei appears and wonders how many times has Shinpei died, and creates a flash, obtaining current Shinpei memories. Mio then tries to kill Shinpei, but shadow Shinpei stops her, stating they need to think a bit more and if they kill him, he can just loop again. Shadow Shinpei states that Shinpei can't control it on will, but if he keeps returning to 22nd, he will one day become a hindrance. Shadow Shinpei tells Mio to take his phone and to send others to get Ushio. He then proceeds towards the shrine. At the shrine, he captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. '''Shadow Sou Hishigata''': At the shrine, after the shadows started killing the humans there, Shadow Sou attempts to kill Mio with an axe, but Sou uses his body to protect her and dies. Shadow Sou attempts to kill her again, but now Hizuru shoots and blasts his hands.

After learning that Shiori was killed, Mio decides to eliminate Shinpei. Instead of staying in front of the house, she enters and gets to his room. She attempts to stab him, but Ushio protects him and takes the hit. Mio then stabs her shadow and wounds her. Shinpei opens the curtain and challenges Mio, but she wonders why Ushio protected him. Ushio tells her its because she loves him. Getting angry, Mio starts saying that she died and attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she died, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. '''Shadow Asako, Tetsuo and Shiori Kobayakawa Family''': At the funeral, Asako recognizes Hizuru and tells her that Ushio saved her daughter, Shiori, from drowning. She proceeds to cry about the tragedy, but Hizuru sees that the Kobayawa family are all shadows. Shinpei tells Shiori that what she saw is a shadow and if she sees her again, she must run. A bit later Asako approaches Shinpei and asks him what he means. Seeing they are shadows, Shinpei explains its something he heard from Mio's grandmother when they were kids. Hizuru speculated that Shadow Shiori had drowned Shiori and erased her in the sea, and then acted as she is the one drowning. As she was saved and returned home, she killed and copied Shiori's parents. In the evening, Hizuru visits the Kobayakawa and Asako lets her in as Shiori orders her to. Once inside, Hizuru takes out a hammer and smashes Asako's head. Tetsuo attacks her, but she smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attacks, but Shiori smashes her shadow and kills her. Shiori then acts as a child, standing behind Hizuru and wondering why. Hizuru quickly turns and smashes Shiori's shadow, but Shiori manages to survive and moves away. She then attacks Hizuru and starts strangling her. She comments that she is dangerous as she knows how the kill shadows. However, she wonders if she is even human as she is faster than a shadow. Hizuru tells her to scan her and learn herself and Shiori states she will do, once she kills her. Hizuru then stabs herself with chopsticks and Shiori's shadow that was on Hizuru's body, which surprises Shiori, who then run to the third floor. Hizuru follows and enters Shiori's room. She then feels Shiori's presence and tells her its pointless as if she attempts to scan her, she knows that she won't be able to move for couple of seconds and will then kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and run past Hizuru and escapes through the window. As she goes outside, [[Ginjiro Nezu]] starts shooting her with a nail gun, but she manages to get past him. At a corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles Shiori, who attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro comes and shoots her shadow three times and tells Shinpei to release her as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question Shiori, who confirms that she killed Ushio. Shinpei gets angry and asks why and Shiori explains that the end is coming and she wanted to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and believes to be the true Shiori now and asks Shinpei to become a shadow and her big brother, but Hizuru then kills her. '''Shadow Alain Kofune''': Shadow Alain gets produced by Mio to learn if real Alain knows where Ushio is. Later, at the lunch at the crematorium, Alain goes to the bathroom. Shadow Alain follows him there.

To soften the attack, it transforms to its flat form and then back to its baby form and jumps on Sou. As its about to kill him, Shinpei shoots it with a nailgun, making it unable to move.

Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Mio scans Tokiko and shows her memory to Shinpei, who then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. '''Shadow Ryunosuke Minakata''': While controlling Hizuru and fighting Shide, Hizuru transfers Ryunosuke into Shide's armor. As the armor is "nobody", Ryunosuke is able to invade it and take part of it from Shide, forming his own shadow. '''Four-Armed Shadow Shide''': ''Check main article [[Shide]].'' |-| 9th Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': Shinpei goes to free Mio in his room. Using her shadow form, they are able to move faster than a human and manages to catch up to Mio and Sou, and explain the situation. Shinpei and Mio then head to Torajima, where they find Shide had defeated Hizuru. As Shide and Haine leave, Shinpei wants to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, stating he is at his power limit and can't save everyone. Seeing the necklace in Shinpei's pocket, Mio explains that Ushio's memories are inside of it and that's what scared Haine and Shide. However, she is unable to read them as Ushio made sure only she can read it, so that Haine isn't able to get her memories. Shinpei then realizes that Ushio will be returning as at the festival she showed for the first time without memories and they can use the necklace to restore her memories. They manage to find and restore Ushio's memories. Ushio attempts to fight Shide, but Mio stops her and shares Shinpei's plan and then Shinpei loops back with Ushio. '''Four-Armed Shadow Shide''': ''Check main article [[Shide]].'' |-| 10th Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': Shinpei's group proceeds into Hiruko cave, but they face a black barrier. Shinpei then calls Mio as he made her steal some fireworks and they blow up the barrier. Proceeding, Shinpei hears a loud noise. Mio explains its the controlling signal that Haine emits. She used to find it smooth, but after Ushio hacked her, she founds it horrible and had erased the sensation of it so she doesn't hear it. However, as Shinpei is a human, he can't ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and manages to banish the signal from the region, making Mio wonder how she generated a signal to counter Haine's one. A bit later, they get attacked by Shide. Following Shinpei's plan, Mio attempts to attack Haine, but she senses her and dodges. As Haine senses all shadows, she sense the printed nailgun and shoots it, but Sou then shoots her from the side, making her realize this was a trap. Mio then slashes Haine, who is unable to warn Shide about Ushio's attacks and Ushio kills him. Another Shide appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his mud armor falls off and Mio kills him. With Haine defeated, Mio expects to disappear and says goodbye to Shinpei, but as she isn't disappearing, she guesses that Ushio held back on Haine. '''Four-Armed Shadow Shide''': ''Check main article [[Shide]].'' '''Tooth-Armed Shadow''': A shadow who can control floating teeth and is missing the top of its head from the jaw up. The shadow attacks the stray Guil, in which Shinpei's group is hidding. It pierces Guil with 2 of its teeth, but Guil dodges and the third teeth doesn't connect. Controlling Guil, Tokiko breaks part of the cave to make a wall from the debris and stays behind with Guil to fight the shadow, while the group proceeds. </tabber> == Etymology == [[Category:Characters]] 24d886d7e3f4b5af7b53798ce6a45ecb53ad2231 1580 1579 2023-10-10T03:09:15Z StaicuName 51710396 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Character | name = Shadow | image = Shadow.png | imagecaption = | aliases = | relatives = | affiliation = | occupation = | marital = | birthDate = | birthPlace = | deathDate = | deathPlace = | species = Shadow | gender = | height = | weight = | eyes = | portrayedby = | appearsin = | debut = }}'''Shadow''' (影, ''Kage'') are mysterious creatures that inhabit Hitogashima. Their goal is to revive their "Mother", [[Heine|Haine]]. ==Appearance== Shadow's can take the appearance of any human once they scan him. When not copying a human, they can take a humanoid shadow form. When facing a shadow human, their true form is the flat shadow on the ground. ==Personality== They dislike being stepped on, so they will avoid anything that tries to step on them. ==Power & Abilities== The shadows can copy scan and copy any humans along with their memories, allowing the shadow to perfectly replace them. Their true form is the flat shadow on the ground, while the human is just a collected flesh, which can't be killed and can be regenerated. The true form is vulnerable by physical objects and can be killed by normal weapons. To scan a full human requires more energy. And once they create the flash, the shadows are unable to move for a few seconds, leaving them vulnerable for attacks. If the flat shadow is pierced three times at the same time, the shadow becomes unable to move both her true form and 3D flesh body. Hizuru's sister hypothesis, the Shadows scan humans with light and absorb their information. The shadows survive by eating human data, however, to actually sustain themselves requires them to consume the subject completely, which is done with a flash and leaves black stains behind, rather than just scanning them. In order to consume a living subject, that subject generally has to be dead, though Haine can consume people directly by touching them with a black mud which is created through a specific ritual. Objects can be scanned and consumed from a distance, but that exact distance is unknown and generally only within a few feet. Scanning can usually be done at a bigger distance than consuming. Fluids can be scanned and consumed so long as they are within some kind of container. That container doesn't need to be perfectly air tight. How big of an opening there can be is unknown. The shadows are capable of two types of copying: transformation and childbirth. When transforming, they replicate something with their body. While with childbirth, they split off part of their body to create a new shadow. Haine can give childbirth many times, but the children she makes can only give birth to one human shadow, and those grand-children cannot give birth, however, all shadows can transform repeatedly. When a shadow is created from a person during childbirth, they human needs to be dead within a week or the shadows will turn into mud and vanish. Generally speaking, a shadow can't exist without being in the form of a human. When a shadow is born, this usually needs to be the human who was scanned to birth them. It doesn't seem as though they can simply transform into someone new to survive past a week if the human is still alive. Shadows can also scan and recreate objects. These objects can only exist within 50 meters of the shadow that spawned them. Shadows have a limited amount of data they can hold, though this limit is much greater for Haine. Once at this limit, they must erase the data of existing objects to make room for more if they wish to store that data. Complex machinery generally can't function without the original being erased, however, if the original is erased and the data of it is brought back in time, both can function at the same time. Haine in particular has some control over time through the use of her eye, until she loses it. Her control over time generally functions by allowing her to see into the future and predict precisely how things will happen and then choose through her actions which timeline she prefers. After seeing a particular timeline she is able to use the data from that timeline in different timelines. She also seemingly has the ability to transfer this somewhat to others. When creating Ryunosuke, she accidently did so in such a way that he always knows what is going to happen two seconds in the future. She explains it as misplacing him in time. Essentially, he is experiencing reality at one point in time, but his actions occur two seconds before that point. Another way to understand it is that the data of his experiences is being written at the wrong period of time. It does seem like there is a limit to this power. Once data of a potential future timeline is brought back, there is a delay before data can be brought back again. When Shinpei is using this power, this manifests as him having to survive for a while before he can go back in time. For most of the show, the power over time is in the control of Shinpei as he has Haine's eye. ==Known Shadows== Some shadows only appeared during certain loops due to unique actions. <tabber> |-| 1st Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At night, Shadow Mio stares at Kofune's house and later leaves.

Tetsu believes they may had a debt and fled during the night. |-| 2nd Loop = '''Shadow Mio Kofune & Tetsu Totsumura''': [[Tetsu Totsumura]] sees Shadow Mio standing in front of Kofune's house.

Shadow Tetsu touches the dead Tetsu, causing another flash and disentigrading his body. Shadow Mio informs Shadow Tetsu that he is now Tetsu Totsumura, the police officer. Assuming his role, Mio then asks him to give her his gun, causing Tetsu to realize she still haven't killed the real Mio and taken her place. Mio explains her morning attempt failed and it would be easier to kill her if she sends her to the hospital. Taking the gun, Shadow Mio comments that she can't go in and kill her now or everyone will hear the gunshot and will be just scouting for today. In that moment, Shinpei's phone vibrates, Mio hears it, find Shinpei and stabs him in the neck.

'''Shadow [[Ushio Kofune]]''': ''Check main article [[Ushio Kofune]].'' '''Shadow Mio Kofune''': At the stairs towards the shrine, Shadow Mio stands and kills people. She sees Shinpei coming and grabs him and throws him, stating that she heard he recorded her, but that wouldn't be possible, unless he knew she was coming. Mio asks if the traitor told him, but as the plan is almost complete, she can't let any interference. Shadow Shinpei appears and obtains Shinpei's current memories. Mio then tries to kill Shinpei, but shadow Shinpei stops her, stating they need to think a bit more and if they kill him, he can just loop again. Shadow Shinpei tells Mio to take his phone and to send others to get Ushio. Shinpei wishes to stop him, but Mio breaks his arm, stating he is struggling pointlessly as Mother will soon wake up. As Shinpei keeps struggling, Mio wonders if she should break his leg too, but in that moment, Hizuru appears and shoots her in the head. Mio retreats in her shadow and regenerates. In her shadow she slides behind Hizuru and comes out attempting to stab Hizuru, however, Hizuru dodges and points the gun at Mio's shadow on the ground and shoots it. Mio is surprised she managed to dodge that and then dies from the gunshot. '''Shadow Shinpei Ajiro''': At the stairs towards the shrine, after Shadow Mio captures Shinpei, shadow Shinpei appears and wonders how many times has Shinpei died, and creates a flash, obtaining current Shinpei memories.

Shadow Shinpei states that Shinpei can't control it on will, but if he keeps returning to 22nd, he will one day become a hindrance. Shadow Shinpei tells Mio to take his phone and to send others to get Ushio. He then proceeds towards the shrine. At the shrine, he captures Ushio and asks her what she was thinking, as she can't trade places with someone who just had a funeral and guesses she had no intention of switching. Ushio awakens and tries to get free from Shadow Shinpei, but tells her she is a shadow like them as a human can't heal a broken arm that fast. '''Shadow Sou Hishigata''': At the shrine, after the shadows started killing the humans there, Shadow Sou attempts to kill Mio with an axe, but Sou uses his body to protect her and dies.

Ushio tells her its because she loves him. Getting angry, Mio starts saying that she died and attempts to kill Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she died, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. '''Shadow Asako, Tetsuo and Shiori Kobayakawa Family''': At the funeral, Asako recognizes Hizuru and tells her that Ushio saved her daughter, Shiori, from drowning. She proceeds to cry about the tragedy, but Hizuru sees that the Kobayawa family are all shadows. Shinpei tells Shiori that what she saw is a shadow and if she sees her again, she must run. A bit later Asako approaches Shinpei and asks him what he means. Seeing they are shadows, Shinpei explains its something he heard from Mio's grandmother when they were kids. Hizuru speculated that Shadow Shiori had drowned Shiori and erased her in the sea, and then acted as she is the one drowning. As she was saved and returned home, she killed and copied Shiori's parents. In the evening, Hizuru visits the Kobayakawa and Asako lets her in as Shiori orders her to. Once inside, Hizuru takes out a hammer and smashes Asako's head. Tetsuo attacks her, but she smashes his head as well. Asako stands up and attacks, but Shiori smashes her shadow and kills her. Shiori then acts as a child, standing behind Hizuru and wondering why. Hizuru quickly turns and smashes Shiori's shadow, but Shiori manages to survive and moves away. She then attacks Hizuru and starts strangling her. She comments that she is dangerous as she knows how the kill shadows. However, she wonders if she is even human as she is faster than a shadow. Hizuru tells her to scan her and learn herself and Shiori states she will do, once she kills her. Hizuru then stabs herself with chopsticks and Shiori's shadow that was on Hizuru's body, which surprises Shiori, who then run to the third floor. Hizuru follows and enters Shiori's room. She then feels Shiori's presence and tells her its pointless as if she attempts to scan her, she knows that she won't be able to move for couple of seconds and will then kill her. Annoyed, Shiori retreats in her shadow and run past Hizuru and escapes through the window. As she goes outside, [[Ginjiro Nezu]] starts shooting her with a nail gun, but she manages to get past him. At a corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles Shiori, who attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro comes and shoots her shadow three times and tells Shinpei to release her as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. They question Shiori, who confirms that she killed Ushio. Shinpei gets angry and asks why and Shiori explains that the end is coming and she wanted to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and believes to be the true Shiori now and asks Shinpei to become a shadow and her big brother, but Hizuru then kills her.

Since he lost his parents at an early age and grew up in the Kofune family, he has been close to Ushio and Mio as if they were his family. He has a habit of trying to "look down" on his situation objectively. ==Appearance== Ajiro is a teenage boy with medium long black hair (which he usually keeps tied back) and heterochromic blue eyes. He usually wears a white shirt and blue shorts. ==Personality== Ajiro is shown to be pretty calm and collected most times, but can also be very expressive during high pressure situations. He is also very protective and determined to keep the people close to him safe. He is also shown to be clever and strategic. ==Plot== ===1st Loop=== After two years away, Shinpei returns to Hitogashima to attend his childhood friend Ushio's funeral. On the boat, he dreams of she asking him to find her and protect [[Mio Kofune|Mio]]. Stepping on the island, Mio welcomes him and they head towards the funeral while chatting about various subjects. At the funeral, his friend [[Sou Hishigata|Sou]] explains that Ushio saved a kid, Shiori Kobayakawa, from drowning, but drowned herself. That evening, Sou calls Shinpei and explains that the rumour about his father performing an autopsy on Ushio isn't real, but they did find strangler marks on Ushio's neck. However, as there was no one around suspicious at her death, they labelled it as incident. The next day, Shinpei helps out at Kofune's dinner. A drunk man, Nakamura asks him if he found the woman with glasses he was looking for, but Shinpei thinks he confused him for someone else. The police officer, [[Tetsu Totsumura|Tetsu]] comes and explains that the whole Kobayakawa family had vanished. Hearing that, Mio runs away and Shinpei follows her. After catching up to her, Mio explains that Shiori said she saw a girl looking like her about a week before the incident. An old hunter, [[Ginjiro Nezu]], tells them that's a shadow and those afflicted by shadow sickness, see their shadow and then get killed by it. The shadow then acts as the killed person and kills the remaining family. It used to be quite common sickness before the war and those afflicted went to Hito shrine for cleansing. Mio then states she saw Ushio's shadow along with Ushio, three days before Ushio died. Shinpei then decide they go to the shrine to learn more about the shadows. However, the shrine is closed at the moment and Mio sees Shiori in the forest and they run after her. They are unable to find Shiori, but hear a gunshot and following the sound, they see the woman with glasses bleeding from a gunshot. Mio heads to get help and the woman tries to tell Shinpei something, but get shot in the head. Shinpei then sees Mio holding a gun and holding the Mio that was with him as hostage. The other Mio then shoots Mio and Shinpei. Shinpei then awakens back at the boat where he met the woman with the glasses. ===2nd Loop=== Shinpei realizes his day is repeating and notices Mio's bike had a cut break wire. That night after preparing dinner, he goes out for a fresh air, thinking if someone tried to kill Mio. He ends up seeing Tetsu who sees Mio standing in front of the house. Mio then kills him with a kitchen knife and creates a shadow that transforms into Tetsu, making Shinpei realize she is a Shadow too. She takes Tetsu's gun and explains she wasn't able to kill Mio yet. However, Sou calls Shinpei, which reveals him and Mio kills him. She starts to explain why she can't make a copy of him, but Shinpei dies before he can hear the rest. Shinpei then finds himself travelling somehow and awakening on July 22nd as he steps on Hitogashima. ===3rd Loop=== This time, Shinpei tries to stop Mio from falling in the water, but ends up falling himself and Mio jumps in to help him out. After reliving the same day, that evening, he calls Tetsu reporting a fake fight in order to keep him away from Shadow Mio. He sets up his phone outside the house and has it recording. In the morning, he shows the footage to Mio, explaining that on the video she can see a Shadow, that is there to kill Mio. Shinpei reveals he knows that Ushio saw her Shadow too and Mio then guesses that the Shadow may have killed Ushio. Mio states that Shiori saw her shadow too and Shinpei decides to go alone to Kobayakawa's place. As the Koba Mart is closed, he meets Shiomi, who decides to check on the Kobayakawa family. They enter their house to find the TV running and the table full of untouched food. While Shiomi searches for the family, Shinpei notices black strains and realizes its the marks left by the Shadow. He goes on the second floor to look for Shiori, but as he notices a flash and Shiori appears behind him producing another shadow, he figures that she is a Shadow and that he had been afflicted by shadow sickness at the funeral. However, Shiomi comes and Shiori decides to run. Shinpei then goes to look for the woman with glasses, but is unable to find her. Shinpei then returns to Kofune's Diner, where Tetsu comes, but as he acts differently, Shinpei realizes he isn't the shadow Tetsu. Tetsu then gives him Ushio's phone, who told him to give it to Shinpei if something where to happen to her, day before she died. Sou then comes and Shinpei decides to tell him everything. They decide to go to the Hiruko shrine tomorrow, during the Summer Festival, as being crowded would be safer. They go the next day, but before they go meet the priest, Shinpei sees Ushio and runs after her. He ends up following her to the beach, where he sees her standing in the water. Initially, he believes she is a shadow, but as she can't remember her death, her way of talking and behaviour, make him feel she may indeed returned from death. Ushio then heads at the festival, where Shinpei makes her to hide since everyone believe she is dead. He explains she can't meet with her friends and tells her to stay there as he heads to join them. However, on his way to the shrine, Shadow Mio appears in front of him. She knows he filmed her and wonders how he knew she would be there. As she captures him, a shadow Shinpei comes, who makes a flash, making Shinpei realize they will get his most current memories. Shadow Shinpei explains that Shinpei is able to loop, but can't do it willingly, so he tells shadow Mio to not kill him. Shadow Shinpei heads to join Shinpei's friends and while Shinpei tries to stop him, Mio breaks his arm, stating that its pointless to struggle as soon Mother will wake up. [[Hizuru Minakata|Hizuru]] then appears and blows Mio's head with a shotgun and then shoots her shadow and kills her. Hizuru introduces herself as Ryunosuke Nagumo, and explains she is there to save Shinpei. Seeing a shadow coming, Hizuru pulls Shinpei to the side and they see Ushio running and heading uphill. Hizuru explains that shadows true forms as the flat shadows on the ground, who don't like to be stepped on. The shadows eat human data, but to get the taste, they have to consume the human. As they notice a flash uphill, Shinpei wants to go save Mio and asks Hizuru for help. Heading up, Shinpei finds a massacre, where the shadows had killed numerious humans. He sees Tokiko being killed by a shadow and shadow Sou killing Sou, who tried protecting Mio. A large shadow grabs Shinpei and recognizes his right eye as the eye their Mother lost long ago, which allows him to control time. The shadow explains that just like in video games, the hero can restart from a save point, but for the Demon King to win, he must cut out the electrical power. It then tells Shinpei to observe him as he cuts the power. Shinpei tries to get to Mio, but the shadow consumes her, along with the other humans, offering them as meal to their Mother, who then appears in the sky. Hizuru apologizes, saying she should have believed the message sooner, but Shinpei states its not too late and ask her to shoot him in the head as he will return to July 22nd. The shadow tries to consume them, but Ushio punches it. Hizuru then shoots Shinpei, who starts floating and sees the island being consumed by shadow and [[Heine|Mother]] noticing him. As he starts returning back in time, this time he clearly hears Ushio, who tells him that his power has a limit and that everyone dies at the festival. ===4th Loop=== Shinpei awakens on 22nd, already on the island and after he met Mio and she pulled him out of the water. Later he thinks of what he can do and realizes that each time his returning points moves ahead. Because of this, he realizes he can't keep failing as eventually he will reach a point where Mio and the rest start dying and he will never be able to save them. Shinpei decides to do everything the same and goes to the funeral, where he have same conversations. He tells Shiori that she met a Shadow and if he does again, she needs to run. A bit later, Shiori's mother, Asako asks him what he meant by shadow, but Shinpei notices they are shadows already and explains its something Mio's grandmother had told them when they were young. Shinpei recalls that when Shadow Mio killed him, she had white panties, but today Mio is with blue and white stripped panties. He asks her if she was with white panties yesterday and even though she finds it strange, she confirms, making him realizes she was copied yesterday. Proceeding with the funeral and after the crematorium, Shinpei asks around people if they know about shadow sickness and if they know who Hizuru is. Alain tells him that Hizuru is an old friend and gives him a note she gave him as contact info. Seeing the note, Shinpei realizes its the code from Ryunosuke's Adrift novel. Solving it, he calls the phone, but Ginjiro picks up, who asks him to head to the funeral hall. There, he tells him to stand still and shoots at Shinpei's shadow on the ground to see if he is human or shadow. Confirming he is a human, Ginjiro calls him to the fourth battery. There Ginjiro explains that to solve the code, you must know that Hizuru and Ryunosuke are the same person, but that is only he knows or if a shadow had copied Hizuru, however, its interesting how a human would know it. Hizuru shows up and to reveal his name as she told him, Shinpei asks for an autograph saying he is Shinpei Ajiro. After giving him the autograph, Hizuru tells him to correct her if what she say is false. Hizuru then notes that he didn't knew who she was in the boat and the only way he to know her real name is if she told him. Hizuru notes that this isn't the first time he experienced July 22nd and repeated in multiple times. This would mean, he is a time traveler. Shinpei starts crying and confirms. Shinpei reveals his notes about the upcoming events with the shadows. Hizuru believes him and explains fourteen years ago, her family was killed by a shadow. Ginjiro states that shadows are going after all family members, making Shinpei realizes why they came after him and Mio, but then starts to worry about Alain, however, Hizuru states she already killed Alain's shadow. Ginjiro explains that once the shadow that copy a person is killed, that person gains immunity and they can never copy the person again, which is also the case for him. Shinpei asks for help to deal with shadow Mio, but Hizuru wants to do something first. Shinpei guesses its the Kobayakawas, but explains she saw Shiori at the festival, so she must had escaped Hizuru and requests to join them to help. They head out to the Kobayakawas, where Hizuru tells Ginjiro and Shinpei to wait outside. Seeing her listen to a recording, Shinpei wonders what is going on and Ginjiro explains that Ryunosuke doesn't have Hizuru's memories. Shinpei guesses that Hizuru has dual personality, and Ginjiro confirms its something like that. He explains that fourteen years ago she found her dead brother with bite marks, but they where only a distraction from the strangle marks on his neck. But no one believed her it was a murder. Ryunosuke texts them that he killed Asako and Tetsuo, but Shiori went on the third floor. Since Shinpei may be correct, they are moving to Plan B. Soon, Ryunosuke texts them that Shiori would escape from the window and as she does, Ginjiro starts shooting at her with a nail gun, but she managed to escape past him. Waiting at the corner, Shinpei jumps and tackles her. She attempts to escape and bites him, but Ginjiro pierces her three times and tells Shinpei to let her go as once a shadow is pierced three times, it can't move. Shinpei asks her if she killed Ushio. After she was asked again by Ryunosuke, Shiori confirms. Shinpei gets angry and asks what their goal is. Shiori reveals that the end is coming and she was trying to escape with her family. She states she is reborn and is the real Shiori now, and wants Shinpei to become a shadow and join her as her big brother. Ryunosuke then kills Shiori, stating that if you talk to a shadow too long, you will get misled. Ryunosuke then introduces himself as Hizuru's younger brother and explains that he appears when Hizuru is forced to do things she dislikes, like interviews. After its revealed that Shinpei is fan or Hizuru's novels, Ryunosuke states that wasn't in Hizuru's notes, but he then punches himself and Hizuru takes over, stating they went off topic. They exchange phones and Hizuru tells Shinpei to continue doing what he would normally do and be their observer while shadow Mio appears. They go the Kofune's house and as Shinpei enters, he sees Mio with a bloody knife, however, it turns out that Mio was trying to cook and had cut herself while cutting onions. He confirms that she isn't a shadow by stepping on her shadow and tells her to go wash her face, while he makes curry. He then hears stomach growling and guesses that Mio is quite hungry, but as he turns, he sees Ushio, who confirms she is hungry. Shinpei is shocked to see Ushio there as she should have appeared at the festival. Ushio explains that Shadow-like monsters appeared at the festival and killed everyone, making Shinpei realizes she looped with him too. He proceeds as normal and while Mio and Alain are away, he sends Ushio to his room, where he later brings her curry. There, he is prepared to kill her, but first asks her how she got here. Ushio explains she awakened at Omoto beach, but made sure no one saw her as she is being seen as "monster". Shinpei touches her shadow, making Ushio startled at it tickled her. Shinpei recalls how she decided to leave for Tokyo as he loved Ushio and couldn't continue being her step-brother. On his last day at the island, Ushio wanted he to make her curry, but he told her next time. Shadow Ushio comments that is glad she had the chance to eat his curry again, causing Shinpei to decide to not kill her. He tells her about Mio's shadow, but explains she haven't entered the house before. Soon, Mio comes to pick up the dishes and Ushio hides under the blankets. Mio leaves, but returns a few seconds later, surprising Shinpei as she almost saw Ushio. However, Shinpei notices that Mio is in her school uniform. Shadow Mio attempts to kill him, but Ushio protects him with her body. Mio stabs Ushio's shadow, wounding her. Knowing they don't stand a chance, Shinpei opens the curtains and challenges Mio, but she asks Ushio why she protected Shinpei. Ushio explains its because she loves him. Mio starts saying that she is dead and attacks Shinpei, but Ginjiro blows her head through the window and Shinpei then stabs her shadow. As she dies, she tells Shinpei that she also loves him. Hizuru arrives and wants to kill Ushio, but Shinpei stops her and instead asks her to save her as she saved him twice. Hearing her voice, Hizuru realizes its the same as the message she got. Outside, he helps her with her wound and shows her the message, where Ushio asks Hizuru for help and that only Shinpei Ajiro can save them, but Ushio has no memories of it. As Mio knew they killed Shiori, they wonder how they know it, however, Hizuru decides to leave, explaining that if he insists on sticking with Ushio, it would be too dangerous as they don't know when she may turn against them. Before leaving, Shinpei tells Hizuru that Mio killed her at 3AM the next day near the shrine and to be careful as they may send a replacement. The next day, Shinpei proceeds as normal and goes to work at the restaurant. After getting Ushio's phone from Tetsu, he leaves with Sou, who tries to tell him something about Ushio's death, but Ushio reveals herself and guesses its the strangle marks. Sou is shocked and they explain everything to him. Shinpei then gives Ushio her phone, who sees the password was changed, but her fingerprint unlocked it. She then finds a video from the morning on the day she died. Watching the video, they see Ushio and her Shadow Ushio on it. Ushio tells him that Shadow Ushio is on their side and continues to explain how she met her Shadow and formed a plan to save Shiori. When the video ends, Shadow Ushio regains her memories and abilities and decides to replay them the memory of how Ushio died. She transports Shinpei and Sou on the private beach on 21st. They witness how Shiori is being dragged underwater by her Shadow and Ushio and her Shadow trying to save her. They manage to take Shiori from her Shadow, but Shadow Shiori then strangles Ushio and captures Shadow Ushio. She attempted to fix the faulty Shadow, but Mio and Sou came and she pretended to be the real Shiori, while erasing the real one. While Mio carried Shiori, she grabs Shinpei's arm, surprising him, thinking that was just a memory and they couldn't interact. Shiori then turns to [[Heine]], who states she found him and won't be letting him go. Shadow Ushio ends the replay and Shinpei sees a mark on his hand where Heine grabbed him. Shinpei decides they need to investigate the old clinic. They go to the old clinic and while looking around, they find an old wood Hiruko statue. Shinpei notices a crack on the wall and asks Ushio to go, who then sees the wall is a secret door but it needs a key. Shinpei figures the Hiruko statue looks pregnant and Ushio scans it, and copies the key from inside. As they open the secret door, Ushio tells them she feels a shadow down below and has a bad feeling. As they go down, they see its an old tunnel dug during the war. Shinpei asks Ushio to prioritize protecting herself and Sou to protect her as well. He explains that if he dies, he will loop, but if Ushio dies first, she may not loop back with him. Heading towards the shadow, they see a baby-like shadow, who appears to be deaf and blind, but manages to smell them. The shadow jumps on Sou, but Shinpei manages to pin it with his nailgun and Ushio kills it. Ushio explains that the first shadow she felt is still down the tunnel and they continue. They hear a gunshot and end in a natural cave, where they get surrounded by baby-like shadows. As they fight them back and try to escape, Shinpei notices that the shadows are only attacking Ushio. Once they manage to escape, he sees that Ushio isn't well and her wound from Mio haven't disappeared. Ushio then explains that she needs to copy the original to restore the lost data, but as original Ushio is now ashes, she can't heal the wound. [[Tokiko Hishigata|Tokiko]] then appears, thanking them for bringing the defective product, Ushio. Shinpei shoots at her shadow to pin her, but Tokiko laughs and reveals she is human. Having no choice, Shinpei decides they to surrender, figuring that they won't hurt Ushio right away, he wonders if she will take them to her father. As they follow her, she takes them to Hiruko, who Shinpei recognizes as Heine. Tokiko explains that Hiruko likes to be called Heine, and to looks like Heine, the first person she copied. She reveals that lately Heine had issues with walking and needed a body replacement. Heine then transforms into Shiori, making Shinpei realize Heine and Shiori are the same shadow and its Heine who killed Ushio. Tokiko explains that around four people die per year on the island and they feed the dead to Heine, which is something her family have been doing for generations. The nurse Negoro brings two coffins, one of which is Ushio's body and Tokiko explains how they burned a fake body and that she didn't knew Ushio will die, but it was her fault for going against the shadows. As Heine eats the first body and turns to eat Ushio, Shinpei asks Shadow Ushio to print him a nailgun. As she does, Shinpei shoots and frees Ushio, who goes and retrieves Ushio's body. Heine sends Negoro after them, but Ushio kills her. Shinpei gets close to kill Heine, but the shadow parent appears behind him and cuts Shinpei's fingers along with the nailgun. The shadow has Mio as a hostage, Tokiko states they didn't agree for them to touch Mio, but the shadow states they will all die tomorrow anyway, so it shoots Sou and Tokiko. Heine rips out Shinpei's right eye and starts to corrode Ushio to reprogram her, however, Shinpei's eye returns back to him. The shadow states that Shinpei's right eye overlooks the flow of time from a higher dimension and observes multiple parallel worlds. He grabs Shinpei and tells him he has the power to make the world he observes into reality, and right now he is rendering this world. However, he haven't mastered that power and he is only able to access it when he lose sense of himself in death. So they have to keep him alive until the very end. The shadow then crushes Mio's skull, killing her. The shadow intends to keep Shinpei there until tomorrow ends. Shinpei realizes he won't be able to loop and fails his promise. Tetsu and Hizuru show up and Hizuru shoots the shadow in the head, freeing Shinpei. She then tries to kill Shinpei, but the shadow protects him and kills Hizuru. However, Shinpei takes out a poison from the poison clinic and drinks it. As he dies, he promises to do this as many times as necessary until he beats them and loops back with Ushio. He wakes in front of Hizuru, the moment she guessed he is a time traveller and as Ushio appears next to him, he confirms and states they just returned from the future. ===5th Loop=== Shinpei tells Hizuru everything and believes their mistake was that they all acted separately. Hizuru agrees to work together this time. Shinpei normally wants to go directly for Heine, but they don't stand a chance against the four-armed shadow. Ushio suggests they go after Shiori as she believes she can erase her. While gathering at the Kobayakawa's and Hizuru entering to kill them, Ushio reveals that she can keep her scanned data from previous loops and prints a new nailgun for Shinpei. To their surprise, Hizuru is throw out of the window. She tells them to run, but the four-armed shadow kills her. Heine as Shiori comes and states that ever since she touched Shinpei and left him that mark on his hand, she can easily find him. She also reveals she can also loop and had been going after him since their eyes met on the summer festival. After the shadow kills Ginjiro and is about to capture Shinpei, Ushio beheads Shinpei and scans one of the arms of the four-armed shadow. While they are looping, Ushio reveals that the shadow had no data and its empty, but kinda smells like Heine. Shinpei and Ushio then end up in front of their house, but as its raining Shinpei finds it strange. He then sees Hizuru, who is younger. As he enters the Kofune restaurant, he realizes this is Hizuru's memory from fourteen years ago. He hears that Hizuru made a new friend and is then taken to the Hashigata old clinic in the mountain, where Hizuru meets up with her new friend, Heine. Shinpei and Ushio observe Hizuru and Heine, who spend time together. They learn that the four-armed shadow is greed incarnate and is called Shide. One day, Heine loses control due to her hunger and ends up killing Ryunosuke. As Hizuru finds them, Heine regains control and states she didn't do it, causing her to burst and blow out her eye and sends Ryunosuke's data to Hizuru. Heine runs and two stray shadows appear, but Ginjiro protects. The other shadow copies Ginjiro, but Ryunosuke takes over Hizuru and kills the shadows. Later Hizuru leaves the island and Heine promises to kill her when they meet again. ===6th Loop=== Shinpei loops back while they were heading towards the Kobayakawas, but stops Hizuru and calls off the mission. They go to the elementary school, where they call Sou, Tokiko, Mio and Tetsu and Ushio plays her memory of the past loops to them. Hizuru believes that the shadows will be coming after Shinpei and since Heine knows where he is, they can prepare and plan where they want to fight them. Shinpei speaks in front of their group. He reveals that his life have been a mistake after mistake and he regrets many things, however, he decided that if he feels he will regret something, he will try to avoid it, even if it means to run away. He wants to inherit Ushio's will to fight the shadows and to not let the summer festival repeat. He can't guarantee them that they will win, but can't tell them to run if they are afraid. He doesn't want to feel he forced them to fight with him, but asks them to fight alongside him. One by one, they all accept, however, Ginjiro who had been scouting, had been killed and Shide taken his rifle. Shide then snipes and kills Shinpei from distance. ===7th Loop=== Shinpei awakens at his house few hours earlier and realizes he must have died. Ushio and Mio come and explain that he was killed by a sniper rifle, making Shinpei realizes they got Ginjiro. He explains to Ushio and Mio first, and then to everyone that he can only loop one more time as the time limit moves faster with each of his deaths and soon he there won't be a place he can return to. Shinpei waits outside for Heine and Shide, but as they come and attack him, Ushio takes Shinpei and runs. While others fight them, Ushio and Shinpei manage to lure Heine and Shide to the gymnasium. There Ushio copies gasoline and Shinpei ignites it. Heine jumps to the ceiling, but Shinpei injures her. Ushio then attempts to erase Shiori since Heine was taking her form, but got distracted and Shide grabbed her and pulled her into the fire. At the same time, Shide shot Shinpei multiple times, avoiding vital organs, but ensuring his death in couple of minutes, so that he has time to kill Ushio. However, Ushio was a dummy copy and Ushio appears behind Shide and punches him and start erasing him. Heine then scans and erases the air in the gymnasium, putting out the fire and bursting the windows from the vacuum, allowing them to escape with Shide. Shinpei reveals that he is okay as he had made bulletproof vest. The group had captured shadow Mio and asks Ushio to turn her one of them. As Shadow Mio is turned an ally, Shinpei questions her and learns that shadows like her can produce only one shadow and that shadow cannot produce more shadows. If the shadows don't erase the copied human within a week, they turn into mud. Since [[Seido Hishigata]] may know Heine's plan, Shinpei decides they to visit him. Before leaving, Shinpei asks Shadow Mio to protect Mio. Shinpei reveals she is afraid and still don't fully trust Shadow Mio, but she explains she haven't killed anyone yet in this timeline. She asks Shinpei if he has a girlfriend, but he denies. Shadow Mio wonders if he wondered why she never called him "big brother", but in that moment, the rest of the group comes and Mio pushes Shinpei to go. Reaching the Hishigata Clinic, they see that all the furniture and items were erased by a shadow. Ushio senses a shadow and they fellow it into the morgue, but find out Ushio's body is missing. They continue a path that leads towards the Hiruko Cave and eventually find Seido being chocked by Chitose. Ushio hacks Chitose and stops her. They manage to save Seido, but he doesn't cooperate and instead wants to kill them, so Heine can trust him again. As he fails, Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but sees he is immune. They see Negoro with Ushio's body, but Shinpei stops them, stating that they are just provoking them and shouldn't follow her. Shadow Mio attempts to copy Seido, but he ends up being immune. Learning that he is immune, Seido decides to talk as he no longer can achieve his plan. He gathers them and reveals that he has a list to all the patients he fed to Heine and Shinpei's parents are part of the list. They had found the Hiruko Cave and wanted to go public, but got killed by Shide. Shinpei then asks if he knows who Shide is and Seido reveals its Heine's guardian and the first child she gave birth to, Shidehiko Hishigata, the founder of the Hishigata Clinic, as well as its first director. Shinpei rests for the night and the next day, they split into two teams and go after shadows that Hizuru saw at the funeral. Shinpei leaves Mio, Shadow Mio and Sou at Kofune's restaunrant and heads with Ushio at Hitoguchis place. There they find black stains and recall Kaoru Hitoguchi, and old teacher they call Bucchi, who was kind and taught most of the kids on the island. Following shadow trails, they head into the mountain and hear kids cry and as they help them, they kill two kids shadows and Bucchi's shadow. They return to Kofune restaurant and meet up with Hizuru's team, who were unable to find any shadows. They then guess the shadows are afraid of Ushio's hack and are preparing for the festival. Shinpei then decides its time to speak with Masahito Karikiri and heads towards the Hiruko shrine. Shinpei enters the Hiruko shrine and sits down with Masahito Karikiri. As they both are having a casual chat about Tokyo's climate and video games Shinpei relates how video games for Masahito are like novels for him, as in they help them think how the ending of their lives should be. Shinpei then leads Masahito into the novel Swapman and asking him about the difference between the copy and the original. Masahito replies them both to be the same. Following that Shinpei confronts Masahito about knowing the truth about the existence of Shadows as Masahito has witnessed it himself. He reveals 2 photos to Masahito explaining how he was still there over 70 years ago using one of the photos. He then reveals that Masahito is Shidehiko Hishigata and points the gun toward him as he later shoots 2 bullets near him on his shadow, warning him to not move while confirming he isn't a shadow. He tells Masahito to look at the other photo that was taken 40 years ago by Seido Hishigata's father. Revealing that Masahito isn't a shadow neither merely human but a Human-Shadow hybrid. Masahito then asks Shinpei that does he know the Great Kyoho Famine. Shinpei responds by telling the legend of the Hiruko God and how Haine granted them bountiful fishes, but Masahito calls this legend false. Him and Haine had turned hundreds of the islanders into shadows as shadows didn't require eating. Claiming that he saved Hitogashima makes Ushio lash out as she asks why he killed Shinpei's parents. Masahito gives the reason that they interfered too much as they were going to make finding Hiruko Cave public. Masahito Taunts Shinpei by saying would it have been better to turn them into shadows. Shinpei calms down his anger as he asks Masahito why does he protect Haine, to which Masahito responds that it is his duty to fulfil his mother's wishes. Shinpei hesitates to pull the trigger as he is suspicious about something. Ushio then tells Shinpei that this is the only chance to take Shide out. Masahito further confirms the hesitation behind Shinpei's actions by stating how the burn scar on his left hand didn't seem to be there. Ushio not being able to take anymore of this decapitates Masahito. Then Ushio takes a phone out and lets the others, who all are waiting outside on standby know that she took out Shide. As she was doing so we see Masahito stab Ushio's shadow from behind. However now Masahito had a bandage on his left hand. Ushio scans him before Masahito takes out Ushio by killing her for good. This makes Shinpei rage as he shoots all three bullets left in the gun. Masahito however blocks it all using his black shadow armour's hands he uses as Shide and turns into Shide. He continues by throwing the spear-like weapon penetrating Shinpei in the stomach and sending him flying. The gun shots signal the others to push in, but its too late as Shinpei is sent out flying and soon later dies. === 8th Loop === Shinpei loops back to when he saved the kids from Bucchi's Shadow. With Ushio nowhere to be seen Shinpei cries and growls in agony. Haine appears in the form of a crow and realizes that Ushio had died. She summons strays, but as Shinpei unconciously grabs something in his pocket, she stops and runs away. Shinpei then see he was holding Ushio's shell necklace. Shinpei wants to tell everyone about the new situation, but he doesn't have signal. He runs to Kofune's restaurant, where Alain tells him that Sou and Mio went out to meet him 30 mins ago. He attempts to call them, but their phones are off. He then realizes there is a shadow of him, but wonders how the phone worked since its a copy. He hears noises from his room and finds shadow Mio, who was pinned by Mio in fear her hack could have been undone after Ushio's death. Shinpei receives a call from Hizuru's phone by Haine in Shinpei's form. She tells him that Hizuru is at Torajima, but Mio at Alain's garden and he can save only one. Shinpei and shadow Mio arrive at Alain's garden, but are only able to find Masahito, who informs them that Mio and Sou have been send for Haine to eat. Masahito suggest that Mio kills Shinpei and he restarts the loop, but Mio kills Masahito. She then feels how Haine eats Mio and informs Shinpei that Mio is dead. Shinpei asks her to scan Masahito, but after doing so, she states he doesn't have any memories. Mio then feels something and they find badly injured Tokiko, who before dying, tells Shinpei to protect Ryunosuke and Hizuru. Shinpei then forms a new plan and decide to restart the loop. === 9th Loop === Shinpei wakes up after he descended the mountain with the kids and goes right away to save Shadow Mio. With she being able to move faster, he rides on her and they are able to catch up to Mio and Sou and explain the situation. Shinpei then sends Mio and Sou to Kofune and proceeds towards Torajima. Having see Tokiko's memories, he knows he will arrive just when Hizuru gives a signal to Tokiko to attack. However, as he comes, he sees one of the stray shadow easily killed by Shide and Hizuru lying on the ground and stabbed by Shide, who explains it was thanks to his loop that he got to fight Hizuru again and knowing what she would do, make the fight easy. Ginjiro believes they don't have a chance and wishes to leave, but Shinpei refuses. Feeling Ushio in his pocket, Haine decides to retreat with Shide. Shinpei wishes to restart the loop, but Hizuru and Mio stop him, telling him his power is at his limit and he can't save everyone. Hizuru then explains to Shinpei that Haine's original personality is just a lonely kid, but Shide's goal is different and he is controlling her. She asks Shinpei to save Haine and he accepts. Hizuru then transfers Ryunosuke to Shinpei, entrusting her brother with him. Its raining outside and Seido calls Shinpei inside. As Shinpei ignores him, Seido explains that Hizuru's body is stored in the morgue, but as she is famous novelist, press would soon come. They can't also hide her stab wound. Shinpei states they don't need to hide it as it was a murder and they know who did it, but requests Seido to give him one more day. Seido heard that there are two Shide and isn't surprised that Shide kept a spare. Seido doesn't think that Haine gave birth to two Shide, but its likely that Shide preserved his previous body, Iwao Karikiri, but has no idea how he can move it. Shinpei then warns Seido to close his ear as a lightning then hits the ocean, surprising Seido and wondering how he knew. At the beach, Shinpei wonders what they should do considering they lost Ushio, Hizuru, a stray shadow, Ginjiro's rifle, Tetsu's pistol, while the enemy haven't lost anything. Shadow Mio asks Shinpei, what is in his pocket and Shinpei takes out the shell necklace that belonged to Ushio, and believes its a fragment of Ushio. Looking at it, Mio explains she could feel Ushio's anger from it, which made Shide and Haine leave. Mio is sure that Ushio's memories are inside, and she must had transferred them before she disappeared. However, she made it so that other shadow's can't scan it and the only one who can read the data is Ushio. Looking at the sea and thinking, Shinpei realizes that Ushio is coming back. Her version with no memories should appear at the beach during the festival. She then can scan the necklace and restore her memories. Mio then meets Shinpei on the roof and asks if Ushio will be really coming back and Shinpei believes so. Mio confesses that she loves Shinpei, who feels awkward and thanks her. Mio realizes he knew and he confirms. Mio explains she wanted to say it as there is a chance they all die tomorrow. Shinpei apologizes and states he can't return her feelings as he loves Ushio, and Mio is his little sister. Shinpei explains that Shide called his ability to observe parallel worlds. Essentially each time he dies, he his consciousness goes to another parallel world. He met Ushio in the third loop and she started coming with him. However as normally Ushio still had not appeared, it means there were 2 Ushio's at the same time. Ushio fought with Haine to save Shiori and is currently drifting in the sea trying to heal herself, which she manages to do on the day of the festival. If Ushio was like Shinpei and Haine, he consciousness would have returned to the drifting in the sea Ushio and not stay by Shinpei's side, which confirms that the two Ushio exist at the same time. As Ushio read Shide's mind, she figured a way to return. Shinpei states that this may all have been wishful thinking, however he believes its true as when he leaves the necklace, it always turn towards south and starts moving slowly. Shinpei explains that she shell was moving faster earlier at 3AM, making them realize it was during rising tide. They realize around where Ushio's body should be and that it will be closest to them again at 6PM. Shinpei knows that Shide and Haine are aware of Ushio, but they have no idea where she is or can track her, and Shinpei's group must not let this chance slip. Shinpei then tells the group, they will proceed as planned. Shinpei is inside of Tokiko's stray and is heading towards Ushio in the sea. Shide and other stray are searching everywhere and find the stray that ignores them. They get close to Ushio as she starts to awaken. The stray grabs her and they fly out of the water, where Shide attacks the stray. Ushio and Shinpei start falling and Shinpei gives her the necklace, which starts to shine. Shide attacks them, but Ushio manages to recover her memories and cuts Shide's attacks. Ushio states she knew he will come for her and then kill all the strays that attack them. Ushio attempts to attack Shide, but MIo stops her. Shinpei asks Shide if he can guess from where he came, but as Shide had no idea, Shinpei realizes that being in the stray, the handprint doesn't reveal his location. Shinpei then points a gun at his head and Haine tells Shide to stop him, but using Ryunosuke's powers, Shinpei dodges Shide's gun and shoots himself. === 10th Loop === Shinpei loops back with Ushio while the group is still in the stray. They go outside and Haine realizes they are in the Hiruko cave. Shinpei's group then proceeds towards Hiruko's main body while staying in the stray. They reach another shadow, who attacks them and Tokiko decides to remain with the stray and fight it, while the group proceeds. Shinpei's group then reaches a black barrier, which they realize is part of Hiruko. Ushio attempts to hack it, but Shinpei stops her as the wall reverses the hack and cuts two of her fingers. Shinpei then calls Mio, and uses fireworks he made her steal to blow up the barrier. While the wall slowly regenerates, they get in, but Shinpei feels Shide is coming and turns and starts shooting him. Ginjiro then decides to stay to prevent Shide from following them. Getting closer to Hiruko's main body, Shinpei feels a loud noise that makes his head hurt. Mio explains its Hiruko's controlling signal, something she can now ignore thanks to Ushio hacking her, but its not possible for a human to ignore it. Ushio then makes Shinpei focus on her and generates another signal that counters Hiruko's signal and banishes it from the area. Proceeding, they are attacked by Shide from above, but Ushio protects them. Shinpei avoids using Ryunosuke's powers as Haine will either way notify Shide, and proceeds trying to lure Haine into a trap. While Haine dodges, she feels Mio and dodges her, but then Sou shoots her shadow. Injured, Haine is unable to warn Shide on how to dodge, and Ushio kills him. A second Shide then appears, but Ushio punches Hiruko's main body and his armor falls off and Mio kills him. Shinpei then notices that Ushio has a red eye now and his eye starts hurting him. Another Shide then appears in front of them. Shide reveals to be still alive, however as Hiruko lost her both eyes and had shrunk, Shide states he has no longer use of her. He sees that Ushio had taken Hiruko's eye and realizes his wish can still be granted if he steals it. He can't let Hiruko die as he will loose his armor. He opens a portal to Hiruko's world and jumps in with it, inviting Shinpei and Ushio to come and fight him. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio. She asks Ryunosuke to stop him, but he wants to fulfil his sister's wish and save Haine. Shinpei then reveals he loves Ushio and wants to be with her and they go through the portal. Shinpei wakes up in Tokoyo, Hiruko's world. He quickly realizes that time doesn't flow there and if he dies, he won't be able to loop. He goes looking for Ushio and eventually finds her, but Haine comes out of her. Ushio explains that when Haine ate Ryunosuke, she her personality split between Haine the young girl and Hiruko, and this is the girl that was friends with Hizuru. Haine explains that in this world time doesn't flow and they realize that Ryunosuke isn't shifted ahead of time. She reveals that Shide wants to take Ushio's eye and then he can go in a higher dimension, where he will have control over time and space. Ushio then recalls reading his mind and that he intends to just "turn off" and destroy the world. To escape this world, they need to kill Hiruko and Tokoyo will disappear. As the world is connected to Hiruko's memories, Shide uses her memories of the WWII air raid and starts bombing Tokoyo, but Ushio protects them. As Haine also has memories of it, she manages to stop the raid and Ushio attacks Shide, but realizes he is empty inside. Shide then reflects her hacking and seemingly defeats her, but Ushio eats a fragment of the original Ushio and restores herself to a younger Ushio version. She then reveals to Shinpei that Shide's real body is in the real world. Ushio gets injured and cannot proceed to fight. They form a plan that she will turn herself into the shotgun shells and they will erase Shide with it. However, she needs two minutes to print the shells and Shinpei and Ryunosuke need to survive in the meantime. Ryunosuke controls Shinpei, but Shide is too strong and cuts Shinpei's left arm and severly injures him. Eventually Shinpei asks Ryunosuke to take control of Shide so that he can shoot with him Ushio's shotgun. Ryunosuke does that, but as that's something Hizuru had done before in one of the loops, Shide is able to separate Ryunosuke in a mud and remove him from his body. Ushio finally manages to print the shells and with the help from Haine, Shinpei is able to reach the shotgun and shoot Shide, erasing him, while the one in the real world cannot move or see without the armor. Ushio proceeds to erase Hiruko, but Hiruko teleports them to 300 years ago in the human world. Ryunosuke initially believes Hiruko wants to transfer her memories on the whale Hiruko and start all over again, but Ushio figures that Hiruko is telling her to erase the whale or everything will start all over. As Ushio erases the whale Hiruko, Hiruko, Haine and Ryunosuke disappear. Shinpei wants to go with Ushio, since if he returns to his body, he won't survive, but Ushio refuses, exlpaining she will return him safely. The two then share that they were happy in the last few days as they were together. Ushio then understands the time powers and before disappearing, return Shinpei to the day he came on boat to Hitogashima and records the message for Hizuru. Shinpei then wakes up as he arrives on Hitogashima. === 11th loop === At the last loop, Hiruko doesn't appear and Shadows do not exist. Shinpei's parents are alive and he didn't live with the Kofunes. Shinpei wakes up on the boat to Hitogashima and recognizes Hizuru as Nagumo Ryunosuke. Stepping on the island, he feels a deja vu of being recently here. He had received a message from Ushio, who asks him to visit her during the festival. He also had a dream that someone tells him the island would disappear and he decided to visit it to see for himself. After going around the town, he goes to Hito Shrine, where he meets the priest Iwao Karikiri and his son Yamato, who tells him that Ushio lost her pendant at the beach and has been searching it for the last two days. He then goes to the beach and sees Ushio and apologizes for leaving like that for Tokyo. Ushio explains she had a dream that he disappear and didn't want their last meeting to be like that and that's why she called him. Shinpei then sees her pendant at the beach and Ushio is happy that she got it back. On July 24th, Shinpei speaks with Hizuru, who signs him a copy of her book. He explains he knows her from his dream and that Ushio also had similar dream. Hizuru guesses its a memory from a parallel world and wants to hear more. Later at the festival, Hizuru writes her new novel "Sumer Time Rendering" in excitement, stating that Shinpei gave her quite an inspiration. Shinpei meets with Ushio at the beach and brings her takoyaki as promised, but she is disappointed he brought that little as they had a promise. However, she has a hard time remembering it and then both remember at the same time that Shinpei promised her 10 or 100 takoyaki if she goes through the shadow door at the old hospital. The fireworks then starts and Ushio welcomes him back. == Etymology == * The name '''Shinpei''' means "prudent, careful" (慎) ('''shin''') and "flat, broad, level, even, peaceful" (平) ('''hei'''/'''pei'''). * Shinpei's surname '''Ajiro''' means "network/net" (網) ('''a''') and "generation" (代) ('''shiro'''/'''jiro''').
